Shell Beach

Reviewed By daleboy2019 - Bristol, United Kingdom

A beautiful beach of soft light sand, which extends across the northern coast of Herm island. The water temperature was still somewhat cold during my visit, but waters are clean and crystal clear. The beach has a gradual incline and reaches about 1.5m depth around 100m out at low tide. Be careful as there is a slight rip current where two waters meet on the eastern part of the beach where there is a sand spit protruding into the sea; it may be unsafe for small children. Overall a great experience

Beauport Beach

This is a small beach on the southwest of the island. Easy to find if you google it. Beaches like St Brelade's are well developed and attractive to those who like this. But Beauport beach is completely undeveloped and very beautiful: one of the most lovely small beaches I have seen. I had to put a city in, and wrote St Aubin but it's a few miles from this.

Les Mielles

Reviewed By AnneDickie - Wimborne Minster, United Kingdom

Les Mielles is an area of sand dunes in western Jersey backing the southern end of St Ouen's Bay. We reached Les Mielles following a walk from St Aubyn Harbour which took us along the old railway track, detouring from the route via the boundary of La Moye golf course. Soon we found ourselves in deserted, undulating sand dunes, which stunning views towards Jersey Airport and the brilliant blue sea of St Ouen's Bay. You will also come across two ancient burial chambers before you reach the road bordering the bay. A beautiful and remote part of this beautiful island.

La Coupee

Reviewed By cat1237

This quaint bridge is worth a look and walk across with spectacular views had from both sides it might be difficult for some one infirm as it is very steep when going on to the bridge from both sides there are some steps from the bridge to the sea which are worth a try

Castle Cornet

An 800 year old castle that boasts incredible views of the whole East coast of Guernsey and across to the other islands of Herm, Sark and Alderney. Steeped in history that includes the English civil war and the German Occupation of the castle and islands during the second world war. There are four museums on military history, the RAF and the story of the castle and a new maritime museum hoping to be unveiled later in 2021. The grounds and gardens benefit from a full-time castle keeper tending the historic gardens and keeping it looking beautiful. The daily noon-day gun firing of a 32 pound cannon by a gunner in traditional 19th century uniform is the highlight of any visit and can be accompanied by a castle tour in the morning, tea in the cafe and relaxing in the sunshine!

Castle cornet has a fascinating history, great for kids for look around and for adults also, Remember to be there fro the noon day gun firing, 3 museums in one, local Militia, castle history, and the 201 squadron, long walk to it though.

Jersey Zoo

Jersey Zoo was founded in 1959 by author and naturalist Gerald Durrell. Its 32 acres of beautifully landscaped park is home to over 100 species of animal, many of which are threatened in the wild. The zoo is the heartbeat of Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, the global charity with a mission to save species from extinction. The zoo's onsite facilities include two cafés, 5-star glamping at Durrell Wildlife Camp, a hostel and the Durrell Conservation Academy.

We had a wonderful time visiting Jersey zoo, the weather was great, such a variety of animals to see and lots to hear and see about Gerald Durrell too, certainly well worth a visit if you are on the island.
