Jersey is a British crown dependency in the English Channel off the coast of Normandy. Along with the Guernsey it forms the grouping known as the Channel Islands. The defence of all these islands is the responsibility of the United Kingdom. However, Jersey is not part of the UK, nor the European Union, but is rather a separate possession of the Crown. Jersey’s prehistoric period produced a rich legacy of artefacts. Remnants of a great French forest that existed over 10,000 years ago, when the Island was part of the continent can still be seen today at St Ouen when there is a low tide. Flints and crude stone tools were left by hunters in La Cotte a la Chevre (Goat’s cave) now perched 60 feet (18 m) above the sea level on the north coast of St Ouen and La Cotte de St Brelade is one of the most important Palaeolithic sites in Europe.
Sark is the fourth smallest of the Channel Islands and is situated in the English Channel, just off the Normandy coast. On arrival, your first sight of the island is the towering cliffs topped by steeply sloping common land, called cotils, covered in bluebells, thrift and daisies in the spring, then turning green, and finally bronze in the Autumn. Upon disembarkation at the Sark quay, you can choose to either walk up the harbour hill footpath which leads almost immediately to the village, with its selection of quaint shops and cafes, or those who do not wish to walk up can take a seat on the tractor-drawn bus instead. With no cars on Sark (tractors, bikes, horses and carriages only), the pace of life is leisurely and relaxed. The island provides a haven away from the noisy, everyday world; making it the perfect place to get away from it all.
