Good port of call if you are looking for quiet and calm. The island is private property, respect this. However you are allowed to walk around; a view from the top is worth the effort.
Your comments:
Olivier: Mooring buoys in Île Fourchue and Colombier are no longer charged. Yachts should respect the sea bottom, there is still too much trash below.
Didier: This anchorage is one of the best if not the best of the area except if the wind is South-westerly. On the other hand, the place is exclusively mineral and rather sinister at night.
