The island of Tatihou is located just off the coast near Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, and you can reach it with a 10-minute boat ride at €10,50 p.p. There is a limit of 500 visitors per day.
I mostly enjoyed the botanical garden on the island. I also finally learned the name of this most unusual plant, L’Echium des Canaries, which also grows at our farmhouse vacation rental in Chettehou.
This plant is a giant, and wrapped in tiny blue flowers.
They grow mostly on the coast and on islands in the Atlantic. The flower stalks are also very melliferous.
