Île Molène
Molenez
A small island on the way to Ouessant, with a fishing village, stone-walled paths, grey seals and seabirds. A walk around the island takes about an hour, and it feels calm and unspoiled.
Île Molène is about 1 kilometre long and is one of the islands in the Iroise Sea Natural Marine Park. Grey seals and seabirds are often seen around the nearby islets. The village has a signal tower viewpoint and a small shipwreck museum. The ferry from Le Conquet takes about 30 minutes. You can visit on the same day as Ouessant or separately. The island has a few guesthouses and restaurants.
