Welcome<br />
to island life<br />
We locals live life with gusto – the essence of joie de vivre has woven its way through the indomitable British<br />
spirit and 800 years of independence to form an island with a character all its own. Fascinating and uniquely<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong>, our long association with France and Britain have moulded the landscape, people, history and culture.<br />
Discover rugged coastline, towering cliffs and sandy beaches teeming with flora and fauna – all just a stone’s<br />
throw from the lush rural interior where our world-class produce is lovingly nurtured before finding its way to<br />
your plate. Be it Michelin-starred dining or a fresh crab sandwich in one of our typical beach cafes, every<br />
mouthful bursts with flavour and freshness.<br />
Neolithic stones older than the pyramids stand shoulder to shoulder with Medieval castles and the imposing<br />
reminders of our recent history. Present day St Helier is a thriving and cosmopolitan hub offering all of the cuttingedge<br />
pleasures of short-break luxury. And, just to add to your agenda, each year a wealth of festivals and<br />
events take place, celebrating every aspect of what makes <strong>Jersey</strong> so special.<br />
Whatever your reason for visiting; relax, re-charge, discover.<br />
Live the life.<br />

Areas of natural interest<br />
La Lande de Ouest<br />
Part of the dry coastal heathland lying above the cliffs<br />
along the greater part of the south-west coast. A<br />
designated Site of Special Interest (SSI) and rich in flora<br />
and fauna, this area is an important part of the island’s<br />
landscape, and biodiversity. A great area for walking and<br />
bird watching.<br />
Le Noir Pré<br />
Often known simply as “The Orchid Field”, this unique site<br />
actually consists of two distinct but adjoining wet<br />
meadows. Le Noir Pré, and the smaller Le Clos du Seigneur.<br />
The site is one of the last remaining strongholds of the<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Orchid or loose-flowered Orchid (Orchis Laxiflora).<br />
Orchid flowering season <strong>May</strong> and June.<br />
Le Blanches Banques<br />
The sand dune system at the southern end of St Ouen’s<br />
Bay is recognised as an SSI and more than 400 plant<br />
species have been recorded here. It also provides home<br />
to the <strong>Jersey</strong> Green Lizard.<br />
Les Landes<br />
This coastal heathland is the most spectacular aspect of<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong>’s wild environments. Les Landes is <strong>Jersey</strong>’s largest<br />
single expanse of maritime heathland covering 160<br />
hectares and bound by 3 km of high granite cliffs.<br />
Portelet Common<br />
With a mixture of dramatic sea views and a habitat typical<br />
of an area subjected to the prevailing south-westerly wind,<br />
the common has thick gorse cover, dwarf shrub heathland<br />
and lichen-rich grassland. Peaking at one sixty one metres<br />
above sea level and covering thirty one hectares this<br />
scenery is not to be missed.<br />
Ramsar Sites<br />
These are areas listed on the Ramstar List of Wetland’s of<br />
International Importance which concerns the conservation<br />
and wise use of wetlands and their resources. <strong>Jersey</strong> has<br />
four! These magnificent sites are; the south-east coast of<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong>, le Minquiers, Les Ecréhous, and Les Dirouilles, and<br />
Les Pierres de Lecq (The Paternosters). These sites are<br />
truly unique and worth a visit; however, three of these<br />
sites are offshore reefs and require a trip by boat. Check<br />
out the “Activities” section of the operators who can take<br />
you on a short boat trip to see these sites. The south coast<br />
area can be walked around and guided walks are available<br />
(contact <strong>Jersey</strong> Walk Adventures – see “Activities”). Important!<br />
If you wish to walk around the area independently<br />
please seek advice first as the tide rises rapidly and you<br />
can become stranded if unprepared. Knowledge of the<br />
tides is essentially. <strong>Jersey</strong> Tourism can provide advice if<br />
necessary but recommends that you employ a guide. See<br />
“Walking” section of this guide.<br />
Reservoirs<br />
There are several reservoirs within the island which can be<br />
walked around. These include Queen’s Valley and Val de la<br />
Mare. Other reservoirs include Millbrook, Grands Vaux,<br />
Handois, Mourier Valley and Dannemarche.<br />
St Catherine’s Woods<br />
Also known as Rozel Woods, this woodland is set in a<br />
deep-cut, steep-sided valley. A stream running through<br />
the valley floor has helped develop a wide range of<br />
habitats within the woodland.<br />
St Ouen’s Pond (La Mare au Seigneur).<br />
Probably the most significant wetland in <strong>Jersey</strong>, it is a<br />
dedicated nature reserve with open water, reed beds and a<br />
marshy perimeter providing habitats for fish, insects,<br />
flowers and birds, including the Marsh Harrier which can<br />
often be seen gliding above the pond.<br />

Since the <strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl family started the business 25<br />
years ago, the pearl industry has seen huge<br />
developments both in terms of its levels of<br />
production, as well as the styles and colours now<br />
availableonthemarket.<br />
Freshwater pearls, which are grown in large mussels,<br />
arenaturallyfoundinshadesrangingfromwarm<br />
white through to blush pink and pale purple,<br />
nowadays however these<br />
natural gems are also being<br />
dyed after harvesting to<br />
create the most fantastic<br />
range of rainbow colours,<br />
from peppermint green and<br />
midnightbluethroughtohot<br />
fuchsia pink and honey<br />
yellow.<br />
Within the last decade there<br />
has also been expansion<br />
within the shape of the<br />
freshwater pearl- traditionally<br />
round, oval or pear-drop<br />
shape, the farms in China,<br />
where the majority of the<br />
Freshwater pearls are grown,<br />
are now able to create<br />
irregular and unusual<br />
shaped pearls such as the<br />
Keshi pearl - which is<br />
commonly described as the<br />
cornflake pearl as well as the<br />
Biwa pearl, a delicate and<br />
elegant long stick shape.<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl has always worked very closely with their<br />

Beach Lifeguards in <strong>Jersey</strong><br />
A team of professional lifeguards patrol key beaches from mid <strong>May</strong> to the end of September. Look out for the red<br />
and yellow flags which indicate the patrolled areas for swimming. Swim within the flags, but note that when a red<br />
flag is flying the conditions are dangerous and unsuitable for swimming. <strong>Jersey</strong> has some of the largest tidal flows<br />
in the world so take care when bathing or exploring the seashore. The beach lifeguard team is only too happy to<br />
advise swimmers regarding beach safety, please ask.<br />

<strong>Jersey</strong>’s<br />
Garden Treasure<br />
Everyone loves a garden! Whether you are a novice,<br />
an experienced enthusiast or simply an armchair<br />
gardener, you will find lots to interest you in Samarès<br />
Manor’s richly planted gardens; they contain a<br />
multitude of environmental conditions and design<br />
styles and are aptly set in the tranquil grounds of one<br />
of <strong>Jersey</strong>’s foremost stately homes.<br />
Originally created in the 1920s by millionaire<br />
shipping magnate and philanthropist, Sir James<br />
Knott, the gardens have, in recent years, seen<br />
signi�cant developments and the introduction of<br />
major new areas of planting. The exuberant exotics<br />
garden, the Mediterranean style drought garden, the<br />
rose and lavender garden and conservation areas are<br />
good examples. This strategy takes the gardens<br />
further down the road to creating <strong>Jersey</strong>’s Kew.<br />
However, much of the original design still remains<br />
including the Japanese Garden, built using limestone<br />
from the north of England, numerous ponds, islands,<br />
water gardens and camellia plantations.<br />
Samarés Manor’s Herb Garden<br />
Take a bird’s eye view of Samarès Manor’s spectacular<br />
walled herb garden, one of the most comprehensive<br />
in Europe. The viewing platform, high above the<br />
walls, adds an extra dimension to this unique<br />
collection of herbs. The formal planting scheme is the<br />
work of internationally renowned garden designer,<br />
John Brookes. The garden is a venue for popular talks<br />
on herbs and their uses.<br />
Many of the culinary herbs are used in the Herb<br />
Garden Café, adding flavour and attractive garnish to<br />
delicious home-made dishes. The chef’s garden is an<br />
exceptionally fertile area where culinary delicacies<br />
are grown.<br />
Education and Family<br />
Learn about the wildlife and plants that abound at<br />
Samarès with the family nature quiz or explore the<br />
living willow labyrinth, the jungle path and<br />
woodland walks. Those interested in history and<br />
heritage can tour the manor house or visit the Rural<br />
Life and Carriage Museum.<br />
The Gardens of Samarès Manor are open to the<br />
public, <strong>April</strong> 9th to October 15th.<br />
