Îlots des Apôtres

The Îlots des Apôtres or Îles des Apôtres (English: Apostle Islets or Islands) are a group of small and uninhabited rocky islands in the north-western part of the Crozet Archipelago in the southern Indian Ocean, 10 km (6.2 mi) north of Île aux Cochons.

The highest peak is Mont Pierre (289 m or 948 ft on Île Grande.

On the night of 1 July 1875, the Strathmore, a three-masted ship sailing between the United Kingdom and New Zealand, was wrecked in the vicinity after striking a reef.

Of the 89 passengers on board, 44 survived on Île Grande until 21 January 1876, when they were rescued by another ship.
