Jersey Travel Guide
This is a Jersey Travel Guide from taste2travel.com
Date Visited: April 2018
Introduction
At 9 miles by 5 miles (15 km by 8 km), Jersey (pop: 105,000) is the biggest of the Channel Islands but, due to its myriad country lanes and long, rugged, windswept coastline, it feels much bigger than it actually is.
Mont Orgueil, French for ‘Mount Pride’, is a castle in Jersey that overlooks the harbour town of Gorey.
Jersey lies in the English Channel just off the coast of Normandy, blending British and French influences into a unique cultural mix.
St Helier is the capital of Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands in the English Channel.
Officially the Bailiwick of Jersey, the island is a self-governing British Crown Dependency, not a part of the United Kingdom.
As such, Jersey has its own independent legal, administrative, and fiscal systems, as well as its own democratically elected parliament, the States Assembly.
The term “bailiwick” refers to Jersey’s historical structure, led by a “Bailiff” (chief judge and civic head), and signifies a distinct jurisdiction, similar to its neighbour, the Bailiwick of Guernsey.

While the buzzing capital of St Helier (pop: 35,800) is its heart, the rest of the island has plenty of appeal, from the superb south and west coast beaches to the castles and WWII fortifications along the north and east coasts.
Add to that a laid-back atmosphere and excellent food and it’s easy to see how Jersey draws flocks of visitors, especially during the busy summer season, to its sun-drenched shores.
Jersey is renowned for its rich history, from Neolithic monuments to World War II fortifications, and for its celebrated local produce, including fresh seafood, creamy dairy, and world-class potatoes.
I spent one week driving a rental car around Jersey which was the perfect amount of time in this Channel Island paradise.
Location
Jersey is located in the Bay of St. Malo, 14 miles (22 kilometres) from the French coast and roughly 160 kilometres (100 miles) south of mainland Britain.
Offering dramatic scenery, Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands.
It is the largest of the Channel Islands, covering just 118 square kilometres (46 square miles), making it compact and easy to explore.
Despite its proximity to France, Jersey is a self-governing Crown Dependency of the United Kingdom, giving it a distinctive political and cultural identity.

Its position at the meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and the Channel shapes the island’s dramatic coastal scenery, with high cliffs, sheltered bays, and sweeping sandy beaches, as well as a mild maritime climate that makes it an inviting destination year-round.
People
The people of Jersey are known for their strong sense of local identity, shaped by a blend of British and French heritage.
The island’s population of around 105,000 is predominantly of British descent, but centuries of proximity to France and historical ties to Normandy have left a lasting cultural influence, visible in place names, traditions, and even the island’s legal system.
English is the main language spoken today, though Jèrriais, a form of Norman French, remains an important part of the island’s cultural heritage and is still taught and celebrated.
The people are proud of their history of independence as a Crown Dependency, with their own government and traditions distinct from both the UK and France.
Jersey has a cosmopolitan community as well, with residents and workers from across Europe and beyond, giving the island a diverse and welcoming character.
Islanders are renowned for their hospitality, strong connection to the sea and land, and appreciation for local produce and traditions, which together give Jersey a warm, community-driven atmosphere that visitors quickly notice.
Flag
The flag of Jersey.
The flag of Jersey is a simple yet distinctive design that reflects the island’s heritage and identity.
It features a red diagonal cross (St. Patrick’s saltire) on a white background, with a small yellow Plantagenet crown placed within a red shield at the top of the flag.
Adopted in its current form in 1981, the flag replaced earlier versions of the red saltire, which had been used unofficially for centuries but was sometimes confused with other regional flags.

The addition of the crown and shield highlights Jersey’s loyalty to the British Crown, while the red saltire recalls the island’s historic ties to England and Normandy.
The flag is flown proudly across the island, especially on official buildings and during festivals, and serves as a powerful symbol of Jersey’s unique blend of independence and tradition within the Channel Islands.
Currency
Jersey’s official currency is the Jersey pound (JEP).
Jersey’s official currency is the Jersey pound, which trades under the international currency code of JEP.
While the Jersey pound is issued locally by the States of Jersey, but it is pegged at parity with the UK pound and both currencies are accepted interchangeably on the island.
All Jersey pound notes feature the British monarch.
Jersey issues its own distinctive banknotes and coins, featuring the British monarch, local symbols, historic figures, and landmarks that reflect the island’s identity.
While Jersey currency is valid on the island, it is not legal tender in the UK, although most banks in Britain will accept it for exchange.

Likewise, visitors can freely use British pounds in Jersey, making transactions easy for travellers from the UK.
The Jersey pound notes feature local landmarks that reflect the island’s identity.
The use of Jersey’s own money adds a unique touch to the island experience, giving visitors a tangible reminder of its distinct heritage.

The license plate of my rental car on Jersey.
During my time on Jersey, I explored the island using a rental car which is the best way to maximise your time in this idyllic part of the UK.
A typical car rental price on Jersey is around £30-£40 per day, depending on the car type and time of year, with mini and economy cars being the cheapest options.
Smaller cars are the best option since Jersey’s roads are generally narrow and winding, especially in the countryside, and speed limits are lower than in the UK (usually 40 mph / 64 kmh or less).
