A contingent from the French Navy will be seeing the sights of the Isle of Man today as three vessels pay us a courtesy visit.
The training vessels Jaguar, Eglantine and Glycine will be in Douglas for the first visit from La Marine Nationale since July 2011.
One of the vessels will be open to the public between 3pm and 6pm on Saturday.
Honorary French consul to the Isle of Man Annie Nedellec says it’ll be a busy few days for the crews:
