The British islands that disappear every day

Bugger. Hadn't really realised there was that much there or we may have stopped by on the way to St Malo this summer. Oh well, on the list it goes!

That loo was the subject of a "where is it" recently.

Thanks.

I'll have to re-read this: https://img0.etsystatic.com/015/0/7670908/il_570xN.427315916_dqdt.jpg

Edit: or re-watch this:

I certainly did not know it was under the jurisdiction of Jersey. As it is classified as the most southerly point of the British Isles means it is now on my list of places to sail to having already been to the most northerly and eastern points. Rockall is still to be reached at some time in the future.

Did you know there are 20 huts on the Minquiers and one was sold in 2018 as usually they are passed down within the family and rarely sold.

I have sailed close by and between some of the islands/rocks but never given myself the time to explore them. I have a feeling that I might not have got approval for the trip. Following Malcolm Robson around the Channel Isles was more than enough for my wife.

Only visited there once. It's a bad place to be caught in a blow. It was a fascinating experience though.

Then there's Les Ecrehous islets......

Recommended route from back in the 1960's from Robson is almost impossible to go through past Grune Tar, as the sand bank has drifted and enlarged.

GPS and plotters have rather taken away the difficulty of crossing the Minkies, or across to Iles Chausey.

Oddly when you look on google maps at the Minkies you cant see the buildings.
