If the island of Batz is often described as "discreet", it will still charm you with its rich fauna, flora, heritage and the warmth of its people.
The mild climate has allowed the realization of the famous George Delaselle garden, an oasis where live more than two thousand species of exotic plants. But the island's heritage has other jewels, testimonies of the past and present.
To the east, the ruins of the Chapel of St. Anne, emerging from the sands and tell us about the ancient history of St Pol and his dragon. While to the west, the imposing lighthouse seems to watch over the island and its inhabitants.
