Jersey Holidays: Beaches and Coast
Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, is one of the easiest breaks a British holidaymaker can take. It offers sandy bays, a mild climate and a gentle, slightly French character, all a short hop from home.
It is a natural fit for families who want safe beaches and an unhurried pace, and for couples after scenery, good food and a proper change of scene without a long journey.
Where to stay in Jersey
The Hotel Club and Spa is a five star hotel in St Helier, the island's main town, a comfortable and central base from which to explore.
Getting there and when to go
Jersey is reached by a quick flight from the UK, with short transfers once you arrive. The mild climate keeps the season open from spring into autumn, with the warmest, busiest weather in summer and quieter shoulder months either side.
Beaches and bays
The island is known for sandy bays and dramatic tides, with sheltered swimming spots and wide stretches of sand at low tide. The coast is lovely for walking as well as for lazing about.
Food and things to do
Seafood and local produce are the highlights of Jersey's food scene. Away from the beach there is coastal walking, history and quiet countryside to enjoy.
Who it suits
Jersey suits families wanting safe beaches close to home and couples after scenery, food and a relaxed pace.
