About Jersey

The Island of Jersey has been an autonomously governed British dependency since the Norman Conquest of 1066. Presently full up to the brim with about 85,000 people, it's the largest of the four main Channel Islands. The others being Guernsey, Alderney and Sark. It sits seventy miles off the South coast of England and approximately fifteen miles to the West of France in the Gulf of St Malo. The Island itself is nine miles by five, with a 'swimming' circumference of approximately forty-one miles, and the waters are warmed by the final drift of the Gulf Stream.

 

As Jersey is an Island and surrounded by the Sea, travel to the Island is only possible by either Boat or Plane.

Flying is mainly by scheduled airlines from the main cities in the UK, but some flights are available on limited basis from other destinations in Europe.
