What Wikipedia says

The Salvation Islands (French: Îles du Salut, so called because missionaries went there to escape plague on the mainland), sometimes mistakenly called the Safety Islands, are a group of small islands of volcanic origin about 11 kilometres (6 nautical miles) off the coast of French Guiana, 14 kilometres (7+1⁄2 nautical miles) north of Kourou, in the Atlantic Ocean.
