Walking in this archipelago is simply good for the soul. You will discover a landscape full of gentle surprises, shifting in a kaleidoscope of colour. Breathe the fresh salty air as you walk in the dramatic beauty of Jersey's coast. Meander in Guernsey along rugged cliff paths carpeted with gorse and wildflowers as the tide laps against the sweeping shoreline below.
Sark offers a truly unique holiday experience for those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of modern-day life. Being a car-free Island you will only meet walkers, cyclist or horses and carriages on the Island.
Wander through wooded valleys and country lanes to birdsong, or gently amble along the marina to enjoy local food and drink at a seaside pub nestled in a French-style fishing village. As the sinking sun lights up the evening sky, paddle your tired feet in clear local waters when the day is done.
Explore these unique islands in a large splash of green and blue and get ready to be amazed!
