WHAT’S ON

Each edition, we ask one of our islanders, who live and work in the island and symbolise local life, to introduce you to Jersey.

Welcome to our island.

John Garton CEO, Genuine Jersey

Jersey is a special place at any time of year, most people think it comes into its own during the summer months but, for me, the cooler months are when you really get to discover what makes us tick.

The weather stays a little warmer than the mainland and if we get even the slightest sprinkling of snow the island grinds to a halt but worry not, even if it does you’ll still find some breathtaking coastal walks, many excellent pubs where you’ll be able to enjoy a pint or two by a fire and plenty of things to buy to take home for friends and family.

Genuine Jersey Christmas Markets The Royal Square See page 33

The Cock and Bottle The Royal Square +44 (0) 1534 722184

The Trading Point Carrefour Selous See page 64

I’m biased of course but I hope that you’ll look out for the Genuine Jersey mark when making your choices, it’s the sign of local provenance and helps you to identify things which have been caught, reared, grown or made here. The association has more than 180 artisans and producers within it, many of whom will be selling their wares at our Christmas Markets in the Royal Square which take place every Thursday to Sunday until 10 December. We’d love you to come down and soak up the festive atmosphere and meet and buy directly from the producers and you’ll also find the Cock and Bottle here, one of those great pubs I mentioned.

If you miss out on the markets, then keep your eyes peeled during your visit for the roadside stalls full of local produce, fish vans selling their local catch, Jersey Dairy’s milk and butter, butchers selling locally reared meat, or for the independent shops selling locally made crafts, The Trading Point in St. Lawrence is just one of many we’d recommend.

It’s easy to keep it local when you have such a rich bounty of produce surrounding you.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE

BOUÔNJOUR Welcome to What’s On, Jersey’s handy visitor guidebook, with a comprehensive events listing section to make sure you find something great to do during your stay. Also over the coming pages of our pocketfriendly, but strangely well-packed guide, we include a full run-down of our wonderful visitor attractions, our miles and miles of fabulous beaches and the incredible natural and built environment that has developed over Jersey’s rich history. We also share some local shopping picks from our diverse range of retailers and a guide to local restaurants, whether you’re hunting for some local seafood or a Michelin starred feast. We polish that off with a profile of some of our late night bars, in case you’ve still got some energy after your days enjoying our beautiful island.

GET SET

Welcome

Where are you?

You’re onSET! our beautiful little island in the English Channel but you’re a GET

lot closer to France (around 14 miles at the closest point) than you are THINGS TO KNOW WHILE YOU’RE HERE to England (closer to 100 miles). You’re surrounded by four other main Channel Islands; Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm and a handful of smaller inhabited and uninhabited islands. Our nearest coastal towns in France are Granville and the historic port of Saint-Malo. The term “Channel Islands” began to be used around 1830, possibly first by the Royal Navy as a collective name for the islands.

Our Population

Since the last census in 2021 it’s estimated that our population has grown to around 103,267. You’ll find most of us in and around St. Helier leaving most of the northern, easterly and westerly parishes unspoilt and rural in nature. Roughly 50% of Jersey dwellers on the last census were locally born with 29% from the UK, 8% from Portugal/Madeira, 3% from Poland, 3% from Ireland, 1% from France and the rest from elsewhere.

Money

Pounds Sterling is the legal tender but we also have our own banknotes and coins which are classed as accepted tender elsewhere in the UK, people can take it, but they don’t have to - so don’t forget to spend your last few pound notes on souvenirs before you leave. If you forget though, a pound note also makes a great souvenir. Also, if you hold one of our bank notes up to the light you’ll not see a British king or queen in the hologram but the image of one of our own royalty.

Arriving and leaving

If you arrive by air you’ll be in the west of the island. Served by buses and taxis for onward travel right outside the arrivals hall, hire car services are also available inside the arrivals hall. Foreign exchange and postal services, including posting excess baggage are available in the departures hall. +44 (0) 1534 446000 | www.jerseyairport.com

If you’re wearing your sea legs, you’ll have arrived in St. Helier, Jersey’s capital. Taxis are available outside the arrivals hall although central St. Helier is only a short walk away. Scheduled ferries operate between the Channel Islands, England and France and for those with their own boat Jersey Marinas offer a whole host of services for which they’ve earned ‘5 Gold Anchor’ status, an internationally recognised accolade. +44 (0) 1534 446000 | www.ports.je

Public Buses

Buses operate throughout the island to and from Liberation Station in St. Helier.

All buses are low floor, so they are all fully accessible for wheelchair users, pushchairs, prams and some smaller mobility scooters (with a permit). Low-floor buses also help those who have other mobility requirements. All our buses have easy-access ramps and a dedicated wheelchair space. A quick reference map of bus routes is overleaf.

Liberty Bus +44 (0) 1534 828555 | www.libertybus.je

Taxis / Car hire

There are taxi ranks at the airport, harbour and around St. Helier.

Different tariffs apply depending on time of day and day of the week. Payment in cash used to be preferred, but all taxis are now required to accept cards. Private hire cabs are also available to hire if you’re not near a taxi rank. Evie electric cars can be unlocked and hired with the Evie app.

Driving

If you get lost, it’s worth bearing in mind that most locals won’t know where the A6 or B12 roads are, because all of our roads bear their own names in addition to these classifications. Your best bet? Point on a map or tell someone where you’re trying to get to! If you’re renting a car you’ll notice that the registration plate bears a white ‘H’ on a red background which denotes it as a hired vehicle. You’d best not flag down one of these for directions as they’re probably lost too. Like the United Kingdom, we drive on the left hand side of the road and all speed limits are posted in mph.

The maximum permissable speed limit anywhere is 40mph, with a large number of 30mph and 20mph zones. In the rural parishes you may also notice signs denoting ‘Green Lanes’ where the maximum speed limit is 15mph and right of way is given to those walking, cycling or riding horses.

You’re also likely to come across a local driving phenomenon known as filter in turn. As you approach one, priority is given to traffic on your right. After they’ve made their move it’s your turn and traffic on your left will yield to you.

It’s a great way to keep traffic flowing and once you see it in action it’ll all make sense. The mini roundabout at the bottom of Beaumont Hill is a prime example. Don’t panic, you’ll be fine!

Parking

On street parking requires the use of either a yellow disc or Paycard (available from convenience stores and hire car pick up points) to be displayed inside the car as signposted.

PayByPhone parking is a cashless parking service that allows you to pay for parking using your mobile phone. It is available in all paying public car parks.

Search the Apple or Android app store for ‘PayByPhone’.

Multi-storey car parks also require Paycards with the exception of the Sand Street and underground Waterfront car parks which have ticket machines that accept both cash and cards as payment.

Parking on yellow lines is prohibited at all times.

CHRISTMAS IN JERSEY

Eat, drink and be merry.

Celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with a hearty dose of festive feasting and yuletide tipples during your Christmas break in Jersey. As the holiday season descends upon our charming island, so does the spirit of merriment and culinary delight.

Tuck into a fabulous festive feast at one of our island’s restaurants.

With the Christmas decorations up and groups of friends and family gathered to enjoy the magic of the season, it’s a special time to dine out in Jersey. From traditional Christmas dinners served in cosy country pubs to warming mulled wine and delicious mince pies at many merry gatherings, Scandi-inspired winter domes and beachside bars offering festive cocktails with a view, there’s something to suit every festive occasion.

Christmas shopping in Jersey.

Our high street, in the vibrant market town of St. Helier, is very much alive and kicking, making Jersey the ideal destination for a short Christmas shopping break. With an ideal mixture of independent shops, high street favourites and locally-owned department stores, Christmas shopping in Jersey is a delightful must. St. Helier’s shops will open their doors to eager shoppers for extended hours in the run up to Christmas, including late night shopping on Thursday evenings and on Sundays. Perfect for those wanting to purchase gifts, or for those who just want to enjoy the hustle and bustle, sipping a mulled wine or two!

26

Turn over to see our full events run down for the season.

In a world of doomscrolling handheld screens, there is still a place for magazines.

Most of us get our daily news online now, but there’s nothing like the impact provided by the pages of a quality print title.

Gallery sits proudly on the coffee tables of Jersey, ready to flick through for days, weeks, and months after you’ve forgotten that latest five-second cat video or meme.

Look out for Gallery at your hotel and islandwide at quality retailers.

Jersey Hampers La Mare Black Butter

Maison de Jersey £6.45 Like everything from La Mare this is made in their inhouse kitchen. Despite the name Black Butter is actually a rich and spicy apple preserve that goes back hundreds of years. The island used to be full of apple orchards and cider was made by farmers to give to staff as part of their wages! People would then make Black Butter by boiling the cider over an open fire for up to two days and would then add apples, sugar, lemon, spices and a hint of liquorice while continuously stirring with a wooden ‘rabot’ or paddle. Use it on sweet or savoury dishes.

La Mare Vineyards Jersey Hampers Maison de Jersey Maison de Jersey celebrates local artisans and produce. They create amazing hampers that make unique and locally sourced Christmas gifts. They even deliver direct to loved ones in the UK and Channel Islands.

They have a store in King Street, airside at the airport and online.

Diving and Snorkelling.

84

The sun warms the sea all summer long. The average water temperature is 15 – 20°C during the summer months (April to October). Jersey’s shallow marine habitats offer an opportunity to explore the beauty and diversity that lies beneath the waves through the creation of snorkel trails at Portelet Bay and Bouley Bay. Portelet Bay boasts an element of isolation from the island, forming its own little oasis. A small islet located in the middle of the bay, Janvrin’s Tomb (or Île au Guerdain), is surrounded by water at high tide. Bouley Bay has long been the spiritual home of diving on the island and the trail there showcasing a range of habitats as well as a reef of kelp and seaweed stretching across the bay alongside a sandy seabed.

Geopark Ambassadors are Jersey locals who champion our unique landscapes and seascapes through their roles within our community and their passion for island life. Each Ambassador was asked about what makes this island such a remarkable place…

What makes our Aspiring Geopark so special?

Sarah Maguire Jersey Biodiversity Centre, The Jersey sub species of buff-tailed bumblebee, despite the name, does not have a buff tail. It is also known as the Jersey white-tailed bumblebee.

This bumblebee is a native pollinator to Jersey and can have active nests over winter. They nest underground often using small mammal holes with up to 500 workers in a nest. They can be found all over the Island, from gardens to sites of scientific interest.

Ralph Nichols Member of the Geology, Archaeology and Jèrriais sections in the Société Jersiaise.

“My favourite geology is La Crête point which is on the east coast, north side of Anne Port Bay which is an outcrop of columnar joints of lava flow called rhyolite”.

Samantha Blampied PhD Researcher, in affiliation with the University of Plymouth and Blue Marine Foundation.

Favourite of Jersey’s marine life: Tope. “Tope is a species of shark found in our waters. They are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species as they are being unsustainably fished in other parts of the world.” Tope can be found at Les Minquiers, one of our offshore reefs, which boasts hundreds of granite fangs, wildlife, geology and archaeology.

A quiet and rarely crowded east-facing stretch of sand that catches the morning and midday sun. 2

A winding hill leads down to this steep pebble beach with deep water for competent swimmers. The bay is home to one of Jersey’s scuba-diving schools. 4

Archirondel

Green Island

NE

86

This popular beach with an excellent beach cafe is pebbly at first but sandy at low tide when the water stays shallow for some way out. East-facing, Archirondel loses the sun in the late afternoon. 2

SE

A locals’ favourite, this sheltered south-facing beach is a real sun trap where soft sand, rock climbing and rock pool adventures await. The tide goes out a long way, so take care with the swift incoming tide and pick times close to high water to enjoy swimming or paddling. 1

BEACH GUIDE

Grève de Lecq

NW

The most popular of the north coast beaches, Grève de Lecq’s sheltered sands and rockpools are ideal for families but lose the sun in the late afternoon. Don’t miss the excellent cafés and local pubs close by. Even in the winter months, some providers offer coasteering trips for guided cold-water dips! 9

Beauport

Bonne Nuit

N

A tiny fishing harbour with space to play on the sand, picnic or catch some sun, but more of a wild swim that some other beaches. Worth visiting for the excellent beach café. 4

Grouville Bay / La Rocque Harbour SE A long stretch of sand that leads to Gorey harbour, with Mont Orgueil Castle as a backdrop. Plenty of parking, beach cafes and kiosks as well as a children’s beachside playground and soft sand make Long Beach a local favourite. 1a, 2

St. Brelade’s Bay, then walk along the cliffs

87

SW

A real suntrap on the south coast, once you’ve wandered down the steep path from the car park and crossed the pebbles, you’ll reach a sheltered south-facing beach with golden sand and shallow turquoise water, ideal for swimming. 12a, 14 to

BEACH GUIDE

Ouaisné Bay

SW

This south west facing beach is the wilder contrast to the adjoining St. Brelade’s Bay. The beaches are connected at low tide, or cross the pine-rich headland and walk along the sea wall next to the protected Ouaisné Common towards locals’ favourite, The Smugglers Inn. 12a

Havre des Pas

S

88

Close to the centre of St. Helier, this sandy beach is worth a visit to see the architecture of the art deco pool, filled by the tide each day. The beach is easy to access, and safe for swimmers. 1

Rozel Bay

NE

A small fishing village lined with beach huts and harbourside cottages, Rozel is more of a fishing harbour than a place to swim. But at low tide, Rozel’s small stretch of white sand is safe for children to play, 3 just look out for the Rozel geese!

St. Aubin’s Bay

SW

A crescent of south-facing sand from St. Helier to St. Aubin, the beach is in full sun for most of the day. With several beach cafes along the promenade front, look out for the softest sand around the Gunsite Café with jet ski hire close by. 12a, 14, 15

BEACH GUIDE

St. Brelade’s Bay

SW

The beautiful beach at St. Brelade’s Bay is one of the island’s busiest; a visitor favourite for its soft sand, safe swimming, beach activities and seaside eating. Voted as number three in the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice awards, this stunning south-facing beach is in the sun for most of the day. 12a, 14

Portelet Bay

SW

NW

A pristine sandy cove reachable by a long flight of steps, where the intrepid are rewarded with a stunning natural playground of rock pools and sea caves. There’s safe swimming when the sea is calm, and surfing when it’s wild. The beach is completely covered at high tide. It’s quite a walk down from the bus stop so pack sensible footwear! 8

St. Ouen’s Bay

W

A magnificent beach and natural playground for surfers and adrenaline seekers. It’s where one of the oldest surfing clubs in Europe has its home and makes a stunning setting for beach walks. Swimmers should take care in the strong currents and stick to the flagged zones. The beach is patrolled by RNLI lifeguards during the season. 22

89

Climb down the long flight of steps and you’ll be rewarded with a sunny, sheltered and sandy beach circling Janvrin’s Tomb at the centre. Portelet Bay Beach Café serves excellent pizza throughout the season, and the pub at the top of the steps, the Old Portelet Inn is a family favourite. 12a

WALKS & TOURS

C OASTAL WAL KS F R O M D USK, ‘TIL DAW N What better way to reconnect with family and friends, than to walk along Jersey’s unspoilt coastline and watch the sun sink into the sea or catch first light? Here’s our guide to five walks to discover Jersey from dusk until dawn.

Grantez

Explore Jersey’s ancient history as you walk amongst the megalithic Dolmen de Monts of Grantez, in Jersey’s north west.

From its high vantage point, explore the maritime grass heathland and the wealth of wildlife that live on the site, and watch the sun set across St. Ouen’s Bay. Listen out for the kestrels calling goodnight. Don’t miss the annual sunset concerts held on the fourth weekend of June. Picnickers and revelers dance to the harmonic sounds of local bands performing in the beautiful natural amphitheatre of Grantez.

90

Nestled in the north of St. Ouen’s Bay, you’ll discover one of Jersey’s hidden gems - La Saline. Walk the breadth of the five mile beach feeling the sand beneath your feet and settle down for an evening BBQ. Watch surfers catch the last waves of the day before the sun disappears into

the Atlantic Ocean. Set yourself up for the evening with a BBQ and a bottle of wine. Make like a local and head down to Faulkner Fisheries only a short distance off at L’Etacq. Take your pick from the latest catch and keep it simple with a baguette and some delicious Jersey butter. Just remember a blanket to snuggle under!

WALKS & TOURS

La Saline

La Corbière

91

Spend a day exploring Jersey’s southern coastline and the charm of harbourside St. Aubin before heading up the gentle incline of the Railway Walk to La Corbière Lighthouse.

Discover Jersey’s past and the remains of the railway’s trackbed last used during the Occupation with its bridges, embankments and cuttings. As you reach the peak of the island’s extreme south-western point, relax and enjoy a well-deserved sundowner at Corbière Phare. Watch the waves encircle the lighthouse tower, as the tide rises, and enjoy panoramic views across St. Ouen’s Bay.

WALKS & TOURS

Seymour Tower

As night descends, star like shapes of luminous green twinkle and sparkle in a few special coastal spots at low tide, illuminating the seabed at your feet. In the night sky, stars twinkle above you as you wander away from the shore line to the sea line towards Seymour Tower.

As you walk to return to shore, and the tide turns to circle the coast, the sea will submerge Jersey’s coastal landscapes and wash away your footprints. Take a guided tour out to the Tower with Jersey Walk Adventures.

92

WALKS & TOURS

Fliquet

For those early birds, there’s nothing more revitalising than seeing a Jersey sunrise.

Located in the eastern corner of Jersey’s coastline, enjoy panoramic views from Fliquet Bay just north of St. Catherine’s Breakwater. A tranquil and picturesque bay where, on a clear day, it is possible to

see France. For those up for a taste of adventure, with the sea on your doorstep, stay overnight at the nearby Archirondel Tower which provides a perfect base from which to explore the island's eastern side.

Just don’t forget your flask of tea for your early morning cuppa!

93

PICTURED: Sunrise from Fliquet (LEFT) & a low tide sunrise overlooking Mont Orgueil.

Stormchasing

In the winter, Jersey comes into its own with wild weather and exhilarating beach walks to wrap up and enjoy. The island’s west coast is exposed to the full force of the Atlantic weather systems and makes the perfect spot to watch the wind and waves roll in with all their dramatic winter beauty.

Just make sure you stay well away from the water’s edge - and at a safe distance.

Here are a few of our favourite safe viewing spots >

94

SANCTUARY STAY

Storm watch in style

Storms are always even more magical when watched from the comfort of a luxury hotel room and the Atlantic Hotel’s seafacing rooms are perfectly positioned to catch the best of the westerlies. See the storms come in over the sea and then take shelter in Ocean, The Atlantic Hotel’s restaurant for a calmer experience.

HERITAGE STAY

Historical drama

It’s hard to beat the drama from this historic bird’s eye view spot. With its floor to ceiling 360 degree glass top floor overlooking Corbière Lighthouse and the island’s southwestern tip, the Radio Tower is probably the best vantage point for a Jersey storm watching stay. Rent this unique second-world war Bauhaus-inspired tower from Jersey Heritage for a full of character winter stay.

STORM WATCHING SPOT

Shelter from the storm

When the weather’s stormy - make sure you watch the waves at a safe distance. Head inside contemporary El Tico’s glass fronted restaurant for the best views of the swell and an excellent hot chocolate to go with it. Take some time out to relax with friends and see the weather change across the sweep of St. Ouen’s Bay.

Windswept beach walks

Head to south-facing St. Brelade’s Bay to fill your lungs with fresh sea air and enjoy a few windswept beach walks along this beautiful sandy bay. Book a room at the L’Horizon and you’ll have nothing between you and the waves as you can watch the water from the comfort of the pool and jacuzzi.

DRAMATIC VISTAS

Feel the elements

The most dramatic place to catch a stormy shot of the island?

Definitely Corbière lighthouse on Jersey’s southwestern corner. Stay well away from the waves though and make a stop at Corbière Phare restaurant for a welcome escape as the weather gets wild - you might even see waves breaking over the island’s iconic 19th century lighthouse.

DO

It may be winter,

but it’s always swimming season.

Sea swimming seems to have increased in popularity over the last few years. Maybe it was the limitation of covid lockdown fitness options, a collective desire to be more ‘Wim Hof’ or just the love of hanging with friends in Dryrobes drinking hot chocolate while your body thaws back to normality after a bracing dip.

96

In Jersey you’re never more than ten minutes from the sea so you’ll always see people in the water, regardless of season.

If you don’t fancy the adrenalin

rushes of surfing, kiting or foiling, grab a group of friends and venture into the sea, step by step, and visit our beaches for a spot of cold water swimming.

Sea swimming boosts your immune system, promotes a natural ‘high’, improves circulation, burns calories and reduces stress. It can also help improve anxiety, dementia and depression. As a social activity, it galvanises a comradery amongst those that brave the water, particularly over the winter months.

1. St. Ouen’s Bay. The biggest beach and the biggest waves. Take it easy and be careful of the tide. Be aware of rip tides if you’re swimming behind the break.

4. Belcroute A lesser-known bay for quiet dips out west with a gentle sloping descent into the water.

DO

If you fancy joining the throngs of groups like the ‘Cheeky Dippers’ or ‘Blue Tits’, make sure you do your research, take it easy and try one of these beaches;

5. Havre de Pas Bathing Pool A great sea pool with steps into the water and guaranteed easy swimming, regardless of tide.

Quick access from town hotels.

6. Bouley Bay The home of scuba diving in Jersey makes for a great swim.

2. Grève de Lecq A characterful and cosy bay on the north coast for gentle a swim with a dramatic backdrop of coastal cliffs.

3. Archirondel In the shadow of a traditional Martello tower, this sheltered cove is a secluded space with the benefit of a café close by to warm the cockles of one’s heart.

Archirondel

Five bits of advice

1. Be prepared. Check the winds and tidal situation.

2. Know your limits. Understand where safe waters / currents are.

3. Be prepared. Lots of dry clothing to put on afterwards.

4. Stay safe. Use a high-vis tow float, swim in groups or with a buddy.

5. Go easy. Beginners - don’t stay in too long!

FOR THE FAMILY If you’re visiting Jersey with the family you’ll be spoilt for choice with activities from all the activity providers mentioned over the previous few pages but there are also a few extra activities that your kids will particularly enjoy (and you too!). Many venues also organise events over half term but we don’t have full details at time of press. Be sure to give the attractions a call if you’re visiting them and ask!

Jump in some puddles

Hide in a castle!

If the weather is wet, but you like to make a splash, head for the woods.

Our favourite is St. Catherine’s Woods, a winding route that takes you along a great sheltered pathway next to the water. Pick a good stick, slide down a bank and, if you’re lucky, someone will have installed the rope swing for some extra ‘wheeeee’.

See page 81.

Our castles are fun for all and kids of all ages will love playing knights and princesses. If you head to Mont Orgueil Castle, your little ones can get fully immersed and style themselves as royalty of old with the help of the free dressing-up room.

There’s also a little play park within the battlements.

Take a wander on a Jersey

Ale Trail Thirsty for adventure? Jersey may be pint sized but we’re big into our ales. We’ve even won awards for it. There are so many alehouses waiting to be discovered in your island break. Savour good times with friends by the fireside of a Jersey country pub, discover a quirky backstreet bar where ping pong and beer go hand in hand, sink a cold one in your favourite surf spot as the sun sinks over the west coast. With award winning local beers and ciders, along with an epic choice of imported craft beers, there’s something to suit every beer lover’s taste. Bottoms up!

Your local away from home…

There’s nothing like walking into your local, where everyone’s a friend and everyone knows your name. We’re proud of our homely, independent pubs in Jersey that serve up award winning ales with a warm welcome. The Lamplighter in St. Helier has won CAMRA Pub of the year for the last five years, serving up eight real ales, four real ciders, homemade pork pies and an awesome 180 whiskies (..and a partridge in a pear tree!) The Forum Bar and The Prince of Wales are other firm favourites for beer lovers. Biere Atelier, Jersey’s first micropub, serves purity beers on handpump with tasty tapas to whet your appetite. Warm the cockles in The Old Smugglers Inn, a beachside pub near Ouaisné Bay, where you can tuck into hearty pub grub and real ales before blowing off the cobwebs with fresh sea air.

Jersey sunsets have to be seen to be believed.

Unsurprisingly, they’re even better with beer. When the sun sinks low, grab a front row seat at El Tico Beach Cantina, one of Jersey’s best surf spots, to unwind with a beer as the light breaks over the ocean. Snuggle under a blanket with a piping Thai jungle curry or just chill as the surfers catch the last waves at the Watersplash as you suck a bottle of Jersey’s newest craft beer, Stinky Bay IPA.

Take a break from the hustle and bustle of St. Helier and explore Grève de Lecq, where you’ll find Le Moulin de Lecq at the foothills of the woods. Deep in the rustic heart of Jersey, this character-filled pub was once one of the island’s ancient water mills, now a cosy traditional pub with a warm welcome, roaring fireside and a fine collection of Jersey ales. Warm up at The Portelet Inn, a hearty seaside pub where everyone is a friend and everyone has a story to tell.

There’s always a warm welcome and the monthly specials of real ales are lip smackingly good.

Let us entertain you

No Jersey Ale Trail would be complete without a trip to JB’s Brewhouse. Welcome to a place where ping pong meets beer in the backstreets of St. Helier. JB’s boasts over 100 craft beers, a smokehouse BBQ and ping pong tables where you can settle almost any pub debate. Ask locals about a lively bar for a night out and they will tell you Blue Note, an intimate bar where you can get up close and personal with the live Jazz and Blues entertainment nearly every night of the week. The beer’s not half bad either.

The twinkling harbour in St. Aubin has a store of lively pubs and restaurants, and just a 20 minute bus ride to or from St. Helier, it’s a great place to start your night out.

Then a visit to the stunning Cognac style distillery followed by a tasting of La Mare’s Jersey Wines and Jersey Apple Brandy Cream Liqueur. Weather permitting, they like to host the tastings outside on the main lawn, near the house. You can also experience their food production kitchens where La Mare makes their genuine Jersey fudge, biscuits and preserves, including the famous Jersey Black butter.

Pedal-powered sightseeing

Jersey is a great place to get out on a bike.

Angela de Louche Owner, Jersey Bike Hire.

Cycling is the perfect way to enjoy the best of Jersey’s countryside, 48 miles of nature-lined Green Lanes trail past lush green fields where the famous Jersey Cows graze with their calves and trees burst into life as Spring arrives, forming green leafy tunnels to cruise through.

There are a number of signposted cycle routes of varying lengths and difficulty that crisscross the island.

The number 3 trail is a 14.5 mile (23k) route along the length of the island which passes through a few different country parishes. For a shorter route, follow the signposts for the number 4 route, a 5 mile (8km) trail that heads right into the centre of the island and the rural parish of St. John, passing Tesson Mill, The War Tunnels and National Trust property Morel Farm.

With seasonal produce in mind, foodies who can make the most of the road-side honesty boxes dotted all over the island.

They offer the very best of local fresh produce and hand made treats. Make sure you look out for freshly dug Jersey Royal potatoes.

Or pick a route that culminates at one of Jersey’s traditional country pubs and let someone else do the cooking, not forgetting to enjoy a creamy Jersey ice cream along the way!

Travelling to Jersey with the family for the Easter holidays? Jersey Bike Hire has various children’s bikes and helmets available, as well as trailers and tag along bikes.

For any slightly wobbly budding cyclists, there are a number of safe cycle routes that are separate from the vehicle traffic.

These include the leafy railway walk out to Corbiere lighthouse

I love exploring the new St. Peter’s Valley Route at the moment. Its track is set back under the trees and winds its way through the valley. It makes a nice change when cycling from town to be able to head inland but still be mostly away from the traffic. The kids love seeing the Manx Loaghtan sheep

WHAT’S ON

and the St. Aubin’s promenade, which conveniently passes Coronation Park where there are two children’s playgrounds and a splash park play area. Both these routes are easily accessed from our depot in St. Aubin.

and the different ducks in the valley, and a stop at the Victoria in the Valley for a well deserved drink keeps the whole family happy.

EAT The Fruit De Mer, a summer staple.

Our foodie isle.

Words | Sara Felton

On an island that is only nine miles by five, it always astounds me just how many incredible dining options we have, whatever the time of day. Here are just a handful of places to see you through breakfast, lunch and dinner during your visit this season.

B REAK FAST

Breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day but also my favourite. Which means that I feel pretty confident I know of some of the best spots for breakfast, or brunching, on our little isle. Starting in St. Helier, there’s been quite the explosion of excellent brunch spots of late, Locke’s being just one of them.

Here you’ll find excellent coffee and a small but mighty menu with dishes inspired by, and changing with, the seasons. They’re also quite the purveyor of excellently titled dishes too, Avo Good Day and the Notorious BLT being just two of their permanent fixtures.

The only downside to the townie locations is they don’t open on Sundays, but this gives you the perfect excuse to hunt for a table with a view. Why not head over to Grève de Lecq, here you’ll find a multitude of places where you can enjoy food for most of the day, but my favourite has to be Colleen’s Café for their full English, delightful. It wouldn’t be a trip to the island without a visit to the Hungry Man in Rozel Bay, this brightly coloured beach hut is the perfect spot for an al fresco bacon butty or if you’re brave try the Double Decker Healthwrecker.

The Hungry Man

LUNCH If you’re heading to St. Ouen’s Bay then a drive along the Five Mile Road offers up three options; Le Braye, El Tico or Sands all have excellent views of the bay and great menus full of foodie delights. They serve food throughout the day too so why stop at just lunch! Nude Food Beach has an excellent menu of wholesome food and fantastic views of St. Aubin’s Bay, open for breakfast and lunch daily and dinner too Wednesday - Saturday. One more westie must-visit is Off the Rails on the cycle track to La Corbière, serving Wednesday to Sunday with an excellent tapas and pizza menu with a strong wine list.

EAT Afternoon tea. Tides at the Somerville

If you’re looking for an afternoon of eating and entertainment, look out for many excellent afternoon tea options. Tides Restaurant, at the Somerville Hotel in St Aubin offer a fantastic (afternoon) tea with a view.

DINNER Your choices for dinner are almost endless. Head out east to Gorey where amongst the countless dining options you’ll find Sumas and their all-weather balcony which offers you sweeping vistas of the castle and superb food. St. Aubin has an abundance of restaurants too, many of them along the Bulwarks overlooking the boats in the harbour. The Anchor Club offers up slightly more formal dining and the The Salty Dog, where you can enjoy excellent seafood right beside the water.

St. Helier is home to several fantastic fine dining restaurants. Try Samphire, where you’ll find a menu full of island influences and the best Côte de Beouf you’re likely to try, ever (in my opinion). Or head to Bohemia where I dare you to choose their six-course Michelin-starred surprise dinner menu, which changes daily and is available Monday to Thursday, it promises to tantalise your taste buds and delight your senses.

A recent addition to the scene is ‘Pêtchi, by Joe Baker, who was a finalist on The Great British Menu. All three of these town-based restaurants also have excellent bar areas should you wish to have an aperitif before you dine.

OUT OUT

If you fancy your nightlife a little more intimate. Tucked away behind Chambers is The Blind Pig, hidden down a back alley just around the corner (you can also get there through a little hidden door at the back of Chambers itself). One of our original speak-easy bars, it specialises in cocktails in a small but beautifully appointed room. Just a few turns away on Wharf Street, this year sees the addition of The Porter’s Store, which channels a 70s Americana vibe into its cocktail den.

Just one more right turn, on Broad Street, you’ll find Vinifera, worth investigating for an early evening glass of wine from one of the island’s most experienced owner-sommeliers. They also offer a private table in the basement, bookable for groups to take wine with delicious food.

If it’s wine time, you should carry on across town where you’ll find the newly opened The Watchmaker, a chic ‘wine, Champagne and charcutie’ bar. A stone’s throw away down a cobbled backalley is the clandestine Project 52, Once you’ve found the location you need to look for the buzzer and ring for entry. Open 17:00 - 23:00 from Wednesday to Saturday you can expect excellently blended cocktails, craft beers and a superb selection of gins and a nifty wine list too for a cosy affair of an evening.

If you’re looking for some pre-dinner drinks, the bar at Samphire and their upstairs terrace (open weather-permitting).

The location provides the perfect oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the high street. If you like the vibe of a premium hotel bar then don’t miss the cool calm of the Bohemia Bar and Roof Terrace at The Club Hotel and Spa on Green Street. The timeless elegance of the bar is matched by a cool calm, great drinks and the chance to be on-hand for dinner at our fabulous Michelin-starred restaurant.

Seyiz les beinv’nus à Jèrri (That’s Jèrriais for ‘Welcome to Jersey’)

A little more local knowledge...

History The earliest evidence of human activity in Jersey dates to about 250,000 years ago and it was only 6,000 years ago that Jersey was part of mainland Europe before rising tides cut us off and made us an island.

1 26

During the American Wars of Independence, two attempted invasions of the island were made.

In 1779, the Prince of Orange William V was prevented from landing at St. Ouen’s Bay and on 06 January 1781 a force led by Baron de Rullecourt captured St. Helier in a daring dawn raid, but was defeated by a British

army led by Major Francis Peirson in the Battle of Jersey. Jersey was the fourth-largest ship building area in the 19th-century British Isles, building over 900 vessels around the island.

Jersey was occupied by Nazi German troops between 1940 and 1945, with the Channel Islands being the only British soil occupied during World War II. This period of occupation saw about 8,000 islanders evacuated, 1,200 islanders deported to camps in Germany, and over 300 islanders sentenced to the prisons and concentration camps of mainland Europe. Many islanders remained and

People Mostly a mix of Norman French and British settlers, Jersey’s community has also been enriched by the influences of the number of Europeans who also call Jersey their home. If you hear anybody referring to a Crapaud (French for toad) or a Jersey Bean they’ll be talking about one of the natives.

Language The native language, which you’ll see displayed in a few locations around the island such as the airport and harbour is called Jèrriais but you’ll probably not hear it spoken unless you find yourself in the deepest, darkest of rural parishes such as St. Ouen, where 8% of parishioners speak it according to the results of a 2012 survey. English is the most widely spoken language.

Jersey and its neighbours Jersey has an interesting relationship with both the UK and Europe in that it’s a Crown Dependency, meaning that despite having our own independent government, locals answer to the King and the British military support our interests should the need arise. Despite being part of the British Isles, Jersey is not part of the United Kingdom. We’re also not part of the European Union but are a member of the EEC. Confused?

You’ll fit right in!

parish, also known as the Honorary Police, who are headquartered at each of the parish halls.

Economy The local economy thrives from a combination of offshore finance, tourism, digital and agriculture. Bathe at our beaches, enjoy our local attractions, dine on our fresh produce including world famous potatoes and dairy products from the herds of local Jersey cows.

Tides Jersey’s tidal range is one of the largest in the world with a range of around 12 metres. We’ve also got some of the cleanest water in the British Isles, which is a winning combination when it comes to keeping our beaches great. It’s worth noting that because of the huge tidal range that the sea level does rise quickly and it’s easy to get caught out.

Be mindful that if you stray too far from the shore there could be a risk of tides cutting you off and leaving you stranded.

Pay close attention to the signs and know the dangers.

Safe Swimming The RNLI have lifeguards stationed at popular bays who provide cover between the red and yelow flags.

Honorary Police In addition to the States of Jersey Police force, who serve islandwide, each of Jersey’s twelve parishes has its own police service that only have jurisdiction within the boundaries of their own

Decoding the dialect A local advises...

Whilst English is the most widely spoken language here in Jersey, if you find yourself interacting with some of the purest of locals you might notice a distinctive intonation that’s likely a remnant of our Norman roots despite sounding closer to a South African twang.

They’re hard to find these days but they’re definitely out there, mostly hidden away in the rural parishes. I should know, I’m descended from them and occasionally find myself pronouncing an ‘arn’ sound as ‘on’ in a way that’d likely disgust the King. The example sentence above sums this up

relatively succinctly. If you find yourself talking to somebody who pronounces words like this there’s a good chance they’ll be able to give you reliable directions. Just make sure you’re pronouncing the place names properly. To give you a head start we’ve listed a few on the page to the right.

Where are you heading?

Here are a few commonly mispronounced place names and how to say them so that nobody stares at you in complete and utter bewilderment. Good luck!
