Jersey is a fabulous island, south of the English coast. They have a population of 106,000. Their transport links to all major cities in the U.K. are excellent, and they share the same time zone as the UK.
Their 50 miles of coastline ensure you never have to travel far to find a beach and, when you do, you will find pebbly coves, rocky outcrops and golden, sandy shores and they offer a jaw-dropping amount of activities to enjoy!
