The islands enjoys an oceanic climate, rainfall average is 20% less than in Paimpol i.e. 40 mm. during the summer and 80 mm. in winter. Britany As tradition goes, Saint Riom, a monk hailing either from or Ireland, founded a monastery on the island on the 5th. century. Some traces of it can still be seen today. For this reason, count Al ain de Goelo, who had the Beaufort abbey built on 13th. century, named the island after Saint Riom when he bought it. 2

3 In year 1900, Saint Riom Island was acquired by the Hamelle family, then by their step son, French Sen. Laniel, brother of the then French Prime Minister. As from 1999, extensive rehabilitation is conducted under the aegis of the Chief Architect in charge of France's Heritage Buildings, with the cooperation of members of the Guild of Royal Carpenters.
