Water harvesting and storage
16 July 2008 | Ile St Marguerite, Iles Lerin
There is no fresh water on the island, and the Romans had an elaborate system of cisterns, illustrated here.
South of Ile Marguerite is Ile St Honnorat, named after the saint who founded a monastery there. There is an anchorage between the two but it is very crowded, as we saw both from the water and on a pleasant walk around the coastline. Today, the island is owned by the Cistercian order.
