About

Crevichon is an islet off the west coast of Herm, immediately to the north of Jethou, in the Channel Islands archipelago in the English Channel.

According to S. K. Kellett-Smith, it means "isle of crabs, crayfish or cranes". Like other names in the region, it is Norman in origin. A thousand years ago, the water level was ten feet lower, making these creatures far more abundant there.
