Ile St Honorat - the sea

You can come to our island as a simple visitor or a pilgrim for one day to discover its charm and peace.
During the year you can visit the fortified monastery, classed as a historic monument.
In summer, reception is more structured thanks to a team of young volunteers. The living quarters of the monastery cannot be visited, but the abbey church is open to the public : you can come to meditate or take part with the monastic community in some of the liturgical services and the mass.


"Group" Reservations
Our reservation procedure for groups now includes a written request accompanied by a deposit paid by cheque.
The amount asked for is 12 Euros per day and per person.
In the case of a cancellation less then two months before the planned dates, the deposit will not be returned.
We are obliged to apply this rule since several groups have cancelled at the last minute, leaving us with an empty hotel when we have refused people.
We ask you to please take note and we remain united with you in prayer.

The Tuesdays of Lérins
Each summer since 1976 the Abbey organizes, with the help of the dioceses of Fréjus, Toulon and Nice, open house days of reflection, prayer, meetings and exchanges.
