Ile aux Vaches Marines
4° 41.2′ S · 55° 26.0′ E
A bare granite rock off Grand Anse, only lightly vegetated and a popular seabird nesting site; rats were removed to protect the birds.
Practical
Tiny (0.05 km², 54 m high). Wikipedia notes the rocks 'Les Trois Dames' lie not far from it and are usually hidden by heavily breaking seas: give this stretch a wide berth and keep a sharp lookout in swell. No landing. Coordinate from OSM.
Best for
Seabirds from the water, and a hazard to note
