Jersey
Web Jersey is most welcoming towards children. Many hotels give
very good discounts to children (aged up to 15 years). There is also
a good discount available on air or sea travel. Once in Jersey, your
children should feel especially welcome. There are literally so many
places to take them (even when the sun may not be shining). Children
will of course generally pay half the adult rate on buses and in entrance
fees to various attractions. For the younger ones, baby sitters and
child minders are readily at hand, either through your hotel or through
an agency in the local yellow pages. It is also possible to hire childrens
bicycles so that the whole family can spend their holiday as a family.
You will also note that along the Esplanade, you can hire 4 seater pedal
buggies which the children love - and the not so young also adore !

Jersey Tourist Board Messing around in rockpools with the sun on your back is one of life’s unmissable childhood experiences. There’s no shortage of rockpools in Jersey – the Island has 45 miles of stunning coastline, ranging from the towering cliffs and tiny harbours of the north, to long stretches of clean, safe golden sand in the south, and the Atlantic surf of the west coast. There’s also a range of watersports - kitesurfing, jet skiiing, sailing, and fishing among them, and secluded coves for sunbathing and picnics.
Jersey Tourism: Jersey is an island and the sea is never far away. Clear water and beaches surround some 45 miles of coastline – Jersey’s greatest natural treasure – and a comprehensive network of footpaths enables the visitor to walk the majority of the islands perimeter. The wide sandy bays in the south are perfect for water sports such as canoeing, wake boarding, water skiing, jet skiing and windsurfing, whilst the rocky bays in the north have superb sheltered diving sites and excellent fishing. The water off the south-eastern coast is relatively calm and shallow, so good for the less experienced swimmer and also for children, whilst the west coast, with waves that haven’t touched land for 3,000 miles is a haven for surfers! Dramatic cliffs in the north offer spectacular scenery and stunning vistas.
Holiday Company Descriptions The Jersey Hospitality Association: Jersey is quirky with distinctive experiences in abundance. It’s different, think of Britain with a generous dash of continental Europe and an impressively mild climate to boot, and when it comes to places to visit you have an array of world class attractions and a variety of wonderful events and festivals to choose from. So whether you are planning a winter break when Jersey is at its peaceful best, or considering a longer visit in the spring or during the thriving summer period, do visit us soon. Jersey
