Because most monastic islands lie close to land, they were viewed as forts holding demons at a distance against attacks on the Church. Monasteries such as Mont Saint-Michel off the coast of Normandy, France and Skellig Michael, off the coast of County Kerry, Ireland, dedicated to the Archangel are examples of these.

Travelling with the Swedish icebreaker "Oden", "Louis S. St-Laurent"s mission to the Arctic was the last of three performed in order to define Canada's claim to the Arctic continental shelf.
