Overview

13,000 km from mainland France, Crozet, Kerguelen, and Amsterdam are so isolated that even today they can only be reached by boat. No one has ever lived there permanently, except for shipwreck survivors or the unfortunate executors of unfeasible projects. But around these jagged coasts, a history of adventure has been built: that of the Chevalier de Kerguelen, who believed he had discovered a new Eldorado; that of seal and whale hunters, explorers, and industrialists who dreamed of “colonizing” these barren islands... Ruins, shipwrecks, and tiny remains tell the story, and logbooks are opened. All reflect a fascination with these islands, which seem to hide themselves away as if to protect a mystery.
