The Glorieuses Islands are a group of French islands and rocks totalling 5 square kilometres, in the northern Mozambique Channel, about 160 kilometres northwest of Madagascar. There are anchorages offshore, and Grande Glorieuse has a 1,300-metre long airstrip.

The archipelago consists of two islands, Grande Glorieuse and Île du Lys, as well as eleven rock islets.

This issue is part of a series of coins dedicated to French Overseas Departments and Territories.
