Jentilez or Sept Îles (French for seven islands) is a small archipelago off the north coast of Brittany, in the Perros-Guirec commune of Côtes-d'Armor. This group of islands is home to an important bird reserve, and is the home of various seabirds, including Northern Gannets, Cormorants, and members of the alcidae family (Puffins, Common Guillemots, Razorbills). This is also a reserve for Grey Seals.
Despite its name, the Sept Iles are only made up of five islands and a handful of rocks. The French name Sept Iles derived from a misunderstanding of the old Breton name for the islands, the Sentiles. The name stuck however, and two groups of reefs were designated as islands in order for the name to stay true. The 5 main islands (or Enez in Breton are as followed:
Enez Bonno is the largest of the islands.
Enez Plat
Enez ar Breur or Jentilez is the only island accessible to the public, where you can find a lighthouse and the remains of a fort
Melbann
Riouzig is the main spot for birds.
In addition to these islands, the two reefs are called ar Zerr (The dear), and Kostann.
Other islets include Enez ar Razhed (Rat island) and ar Moudennoù.
The isle of Taveeg (Tomé) is closer to the coast, and is not considered part of the archipelago.
