The different spellings on maps and in data sets are not unique to the archipelago. Variations arise from historical maps, French terms, and inconsistent transfers to modern systems. For orientation, a clear classification is more important than linguistic subtlety.

Classification

It is a very small, isolated island with no permanent settlement. The area is small. It has no independent use and serves no tourist or infrastructural function.

The islands are part of a local cluster of islands surrounding larger islands in the Inner Islands. Other small granite islands lie nearby and serve as map references. There is no regular ferry service; access, if at all, is via private boat trips.

The island is uninhabited. There are no facilities, beaches, or accommodations. Depending on the exact location, restrictions may apply due to nature conservation or coastal protection laws. It is not advisable to plan a trip there.

  • Small island point
  • Uninhabited
  • No tourist use
  • No regular access
  • Several spelling variations in map material

For travel planning, the location is primarily relevant as a point of orientation. Consistent categorization helps avoid confusion in maps, data sets, and booking systems, and supports a clear structure in the overall overview of the archipelago.
