Ferry from Jersey to Sark

About Jersey

Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, is a British Crown dependency found just off the coast of Normandy in France. Reaching 9 miles long and 5 miles wide, it has a wealth of beaches and coastline activities on offer. The north and east coasts are scattered with rock pools ideal for children, whilst the south and west are lined by golden sandy beaches with bright blue waters worthy of the Mediterranean. However, Jersey is far more than just seaside fun, with plenty of fascinating landmarks and historical sites waiting to be explored including a ruinous 14th Century castle and Britain’s first concrete lighthouse. For a relatively small island, Jersey provides a wide range of ferry services from its port in St Helier on the south coast. You can sail to the other Channel Islands, northern France and the south coast of England, with a selection of ferry operators to choose from.

About Sark

Sark is the fourth smallest of the Channel Islands in the English Channel, just off the Normandy coast in France. On arrival, you’re met by towering cliffs topped by steeply sloping land covered in bluebells, thrift and daisies. As well as natural beauty, Sark boasts an incredibly tranquil atmosphere thanks to the absence of cars on the island, earning it the nickname ‘the crown jewel of the Channel Islands’. Sark has even been awarded for its exceptional quality of unpolluted darkness, providing unbeatable night sky views, so be sure to take an evening stroll. The surrounding waters offer great conditions for sea kayaking and bodyboarding, too, so there’s plenty of activities to enjoy. Sark is a useful gateway to the neighbouring Channel Island of Jersey, the largest of the archipelago, with frequent sailings departing the main port on the east coast lasting around 80 minutes.
