A Trip Round Jersey - 25 Things in 2025: Thing #12

In our free days we explored St Helier, where we were staying, and took a coach tour around the island.

This is Elizabeth Castle, in the bay next to St Helier, and views taken from the top of one of the towers and also the hermitage:

   

   

Gorey Harbour on the east coast and Mont Orgueil Castle

   

The gardens and beach at St Brelade's on the south coast, where we ate our lunch

   


The lighthouse at Corbiere point on the south-west tip



I went paddling in St Ouen's Bay, on the west coast, but no picture as it was a short stop and the tide was out.

And finally, Jersey cows as we drove back across the middle of the island

I've only ever been to Jersey twice but I think it's a lovely place.

Pretty pictures! Reminds me fondly of son's wedding (he married a Jèrriaise!). Love the lighthouse and the blue skies.

Your photos are stunning! I especially like the ones from the gardens and beach at St Brelade's and the lighthouse at Corbiere point. I think I'll have to add Jersey to my bucket list. :-D
