Description

Bay of Mont Saint-Michel, France, satellite image. North is at top. Vegetation is shown in green, water in blue, and urban areas in grey. This bay lies in the north-western corner of the Basse-Normandie region in northern France. To the east is the estuary of the rivers Couesnon, See and Selune. The bay takes its name from Le Mont Saint-Michel, a small rocky island in the Couesnon part of the estuary lying about 1 kilometre from the northern coastline (just visible here as the lower of the two dark dots).
