The largest of the Channel Islands, Jersey has beautiful coastlines, sweeping landscapes but best of all homegrown hospitality that makes eveyrone feel welcome.

A short flight from anywhere in the UK, or just under five hours by ferry, Jersey is ideal for a mini getaway where you can relax and indulge in a spot of luxury, partake in some fine dining, live like the stars for a day by chartering your very own yacht, and then enjoy some premium spa treatments.

Champagne and Oyster Tours

Here's a weird and mostly unknown fact. Jersey is home to the largest oyster farms in Europe. With the third largest tidal range in the world and a rich 6,000-year history of enjoying oysters, you can venture into the depths of Seymour Oyster beds and enjoy a memorable tasting and Champagne tour.

With over 14 million oysters set in tranquil crystal-clear waters, tour guides share the history of Jersey’s oyster farming. On a clear day the experience is complete with views of the French coast. Tours cost £30 per person.
