'Île-de-Bréhat' (
Breton: ''Enez Vriad'') is an
island located near
Paimpol, a mile off the northern coast of
Bretagne. Administratively, it forms a
commune of the
Côtes-d'Armor ''
département'' in
France.
Bréhat is actually an
archipelago composed of two main
islands, separated only at high tide, and many smaller ones. It is famous for its pink
granite rocks, very mild
micro-climate and
Mediterranean vegetation, due to the warm
Gulf Stream coming from across the
Atlantic.
Many day-trippers come to Brehat every day by the ferry service (les Vedettes de Bréhat) and visit the main tourist attractions, the Paon & Rosedo lighthouses, the St-Michel chapel, the Guerzido beach, the Birlot water-mill and the Verrerie of Bréhat.
