Feature Island

Regional Information

The rest of the world grows dreamy when talking about the charms of France, with good reason. This is the country that gave us epicurean delights like Camembert and champagne. The landscape renowned for the Eiffel Tour and the Louvre also has a few rare private islands in her domain. France's west coast is flanked by the Atlantic and her warm east coast sits nicely along the Mediterranean. The Atlantic coast holds some of France's private islands available for rent, as does the River Seine – inland. Islands are rare indeed along the desirable upscale coast of the Cote d'Azur.
