The Fortunate Isles, also called the Isles (or Islands) of the Blessed (makarôn nêsoi). Favored mortals in classical and Celtic legend were received by the gods into this blissful paradise. These islands were thought to lie in the Western Ocean near the encircling River Oceanus; the Madeira and the Canary Islands have sometimes been cited as possible matches. Modern geography names these islands as Macaronesia.
