A trip made at the time of the spring tides we have just spoken about offers other advantages which will be especially appreciated by artists: chiefly the advantage of seeing Mont Saint-Michel, its Abbey, its ramparts and its shingles surrounded and covered with the sea, brilliantly lighted by the moon and offering, particularly during the Mont-Saint-Michel, rocky islet and famous sanctuary in Manche département, Normandy région, France, off the coast of Normandy. It lies 41 miles (66 km) north of Rennes and 32 miles (52 km) east of Saint-Malo. Ii4gwN.
