The private speedboat links three of the northern islands. Coin de Mire, a nature reserve where landing is not allowed, is skirted for its orange cliffs and seabirds. Îlot Gabriel is famous for its pure white sandbar. Five minutes away, uninhabited Île Plate was a quarantine station from the mid-19th century to the 1930s: overgrown buildings, a cemetery on the south side and a white lighthouse remain.
