Ruby Wax: Sane New World

Ruby Wax – comedian, writer, mental health campaigner – shows us just how our minds can send us mad as our internal critics play on a permanent loop tape. Ruby knows this only too well. She has been on a tough but enlightening journey through depression which has taken her from The Priory through to an MA from Oxford University in Mindfulnessbased Cognitive Therapy. This show helps us all understand why we sabotage our sanity, how our brains work and how we can rewire our thinking to find calm in a frenetic world. Helping you become the master, not the slave, of your mind, this show is your route to saner living. Time: 20:00 Price: £15.00 - £17.50 Place: Jersey Opera House, Gloucester Street, St. Helier Tel: 01534 511115 or log on to www.jerseyoperahouse.co.uk

Enjoy Nature La Lande de Ouest

Portelet Common

Le Noir Pré

Ramsar Sites

Part of the dry coastal heathland lying above the cliffs along the greater part of the south-west coast. A designated Site of Special Interest (SSI) and rich in flora and fauna, this area is an important part of theisland’s landscape, and biodiversity. A great area for walking and bird watching.

Often known simply as “The Orchid Field”, this unique site actually consists of two distinct but adjoining wet meadows. Le Noir Pré and the smaller Le Clos du Seigneur. The site is one of the last remaining strongholds of the Jersey Orchid or loose-flowered Orchid (Orchis Laxiflora). Orchid flowering season May and June.

Le Noir Pre

Le Blanches Banques

The sand dune system at the southern end of St Ouen’s Bay is recognised as an SSI and more than 400 plant species have been recorded here. It also provides home to the super Jersey Green Lizard.

Les Landes

This coastal heathland is the most spectacular aspect of Jersey’s wild environments. Les Landes is Jersey’s largest single expanse of maritime heathland covering 160 hectares and bound by 3 km of high granite cliffs.

With a mixture of dramatic sea views and a habitat typical of an area subjected to the prevailing southwesterly wind, the common has thick gorse cover, dwarf shrub heathland and lichen-rich grassland. Peaking at one sixty one metres above sea level and covering thirty one hectares this scenery is not to be missed.

These are areas listed on the Ramstar List of Westland’s of International Importance which concerns the conservation and wise use of wetlands and their resources. Jersey has four! These magnificent sites are; the southeast coast of Jersey, Le Minquiers, Les Ècréhous, and Les Dirouilles, and Les Pierres de lecq (The Paternosters). These sites are truly unique and worth a visit; however, three of these sites are offshore reefs and require a trip by boat. Check out the “Activities” section of the operators who can take you on a short boat trip to see these sites. The south coast area can be walked around and guided walks are available (contact Jersey Walk Adventures – see “Activities”). Important! If you wish to walk around the area independently please seek advice first as the tide rises rapidly and you can become stranded if unprepared. Knowledge of the tides is essentially. Jersey Tourism can provide advice if necessary but recommends that you employ a guide. See “Walking” section of this guide.

Reservoirs

There are several reservoirs within the island which can be walked around. These include Queen’s Valley and Val de la Mare. Other reservoirs include Millbrook, Grands Vaux, Handois, Mourier Valley and Dannemarche.

18

Val de la Mare Arboretum

Hidden away in the north west corner of the Island next to Val de la Mare reservoir, is one of Britain’s most unique collection of trees in an arboretum called ‘The Forgotten Forest’. Planted in the late 1970s, seedlings grown from seeds gathered all over the world have progressed into an eclectic collection of mature trees. Divided into zones within the arboretum, North American maples and oaks stand near Australasian eucalyptus trees, interesting flora compliment a majestic wingnut, walnut and hickory zone. Don’t miss a giant Californian redwood specimen or the Japanese zone alongside the conifers and pines. There’s even an ‘Elm Trial Zone’ containing species of the tree which are thought to be resistant to Dutch elm disease. Starved of funding, the collection was largely neglected until 2011 when local tree charity Jersey Trees for Life, with the support of Jersey Water, stepped in to embark on an ambitious project to rejuvenate this tranquil and forgotten site. Free to visit and easily accessible from the car park opposite the aMaizin! Adventure Park on Bus Route No.9, this is a work in progress well worth a trip.” (Suggestion: suitable only for able bodies walkers)

St Catherine’s Woods

Also known as Rozel Woods, this woodland is set in a deep-cut, steep-sided valley. A stream running through the valley floor has helped develop a wide range of habitats within the woodland.

St Ouen’s Pond (La Mare au Seigneur).

Probably the most significant wetland in Jersey, it is a dedicated nature reserve with open water, reed beds and a marshy perimeter providing habitats for fish, insects, flowers and birds, including the Marsh Harrier which can often be seen gliding above the pond.


The warmest welcome in the British Isles... Get the most out of your break to Jersey by calling into Jersey Tourism’s Visitor Centre, conveniently located a short distance away from the Elizabeth Ferry Terminal and Liberation Station.

Where do the locals go? WHEN YOU are visiting somewhere new, we all know the best places are where the local folk love to go. Fancy somewhere great to eat and drink? Here are two of Jersey’s favourites, one in St.Helier and one on the East coast: On Queen’s Road, just a short walk from the centre of town, you’ll find the award winning THE INN in all its’ purple glory. THE INN is proud to be one of the first Restaurants in Jersey to be awarded a Taste Jersey accreditation receiving Gold Highly Commended, recognising outstanding food and service and also holds a coveted Gold Award from Visit Britain. The Restaurant is calm and inviting, with unusual art adding a fun vibe. You’ll find a real mix of customers and the staff are incredibly efficient and friendly. THE INN has some of the best Chefs in Jersey, who will prepare for you fresh locally caught fish, tender steaks and house specialities - loads to choose from. On a Sunday there is no need to rush for lunch... Slunch! THE INN serves food anytime from 1-8pm and you can Slunch a little or a lot. THE INN’s Bar has a great range of wines, cocktails and real ales, as well as serving food and the Live music on Friday and Saturday nights is a real treat. Take a trip out to Grouville and visit the Seymour Inn, a traditional Jersey pub with a warm welcome and great pub grub. The menu has lots of choice including, unsurprisingly being surrounded by sea, plenty of delicious fish dishes. The oysters come from right across the road and you can even see the oyster beds. The al fresco areas are perfect to enjoy the beach views with a chilled glass of wine or real ale. On Sundays the Seymour Inn also serves lunch all day untill 8pm. Two Jersey gems, both with excellent food and friendly service, THE INN and the Seymour Inn won’t disappoint. And to welcome visitors to Jersey, receive 10% off your meal when you use this voucher.

Beach Lifeguards A team of professional lifeguards patrol key beaches from mid May to the end of September. Look out for the red and yellow flags which indicate the patrolled areas for swimming. Swim within the flags, but note that when a red flag is flying the conditions are dangerous and unsuitable for swimming. Jersey has some of the largest tidal flows in the world so take care when bathing or exploring the seashore. The beach lifeguard team is only too happy to advise swimmers regarding beach safety, please ask. St Brelade’s Bay has been voted one of the top 10 beaches in the UK by Tripadvisor’s Travellers Choice 2013
