Jersey – la belle

Do not judge this island by the capital city. St Hiller is modern, noisy and crowded. What Jersey has to offer is far from the city.
You can buy day pass for all island buses for 8 pounds but theis frequency especially on Sunday is low (like one bus per hour), so you will not be able to see all in one day. Lucky me! My host – charming lady from Transylvania offered me a car tour and I had a chance to go with her around the island. There are mang nice beaches, stunning cliffs, stone towers and a Devils Hole, but the real jewel of Jersey is hidden in the southwest of the island. It is Beau Port – cozy cove with a great beach… At 1.30 p.m. I said goodbye to my guide in St Aubin on the southern coast (she went to the work). St Auban is full of flowers, has a little castle and stone churches. From here the seaside promenade goes to the St Helier. It was a nice, 3-miles walk in the sun to the capital of the island. Many streets and places has French names here. France is only 20 kms away – I will be sailing there in the evening!
