Part of the Isles of St Francis Conservation Park
A further 1.5km south lies Fenelon Island, named by Baudin after Francois di Salignac de-la Mothe Fenelon, a French archbishop, theologian, and man of letters. Like Masillon Island, its thick calcarenite capping is protected by a high granite base. The dome-shaped island has a rounded coastline that drops off to deep water on all sides, except for a small beach on the north-eastern side, enclosed by the island’s only cliffs.
