Description
On Handa Island you will have the possibility to easily see Guillemot de Troïl, Pingouin torda, Fulmar boréal, Macareux moine, Grand Labbe and the Labbe parasite which nest on the island and many other birds! It is an island where no one lives and it is staying wild. There are pedestrian paths to follow and which allow you to take a nice tour. You have breathtaking views of a live seabird colonies. The best time is April to July for the reproduction of seabirds. Mid-May to July for Macareux moine. Watch out for the Grand Labbe attacks!

Accès
You can only reach the island in a small inflatable boat. You must first go to the small port of Tarbet, there is a small car park to park the car. There is also a cafe / restaurant on this parking site and toilets. Take food with you, because on Handa Island, there is only a picnic place. The walking route on the island that is shown on the map below is about 6 km long.
