Les Saintes

The Îles des Saintes, also known as Les Saintes, are an archipelago made up of eight small islands and rocks called Terre-de-Bas, Terre-de-Haut, Ilet Cabrit, Grand Ilet, La Coche, Les Augustins, Le Pate and La Redonde of which only two, Terre de Bas and Terre de Haut (the largest) are inhabited. Administratively, they are all dependent on Guadeloupe, in the French Antilles.

Les Saintes were discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493, on All Saints' Day, and he consequently baptized them Los Santos, but the first French settlers who moved to the archipelago arrived only in 1643 from Brittany.
