Approach the Island by air and you see lush valleys, well-kept fields and an unspoilt coastline. Arrive by sea and you will be greeted by the sweep of St. Ouen's Bay, the rocky grandeur of La Corbière and the picturesque Elizabeth Castle. The scene is set for a grand encounter with a small but delightful island whose variety of scenery, wealth of history and sheer beauty is on par with much larger and, perhaps, better-known destinations.

With approximately 450 miles (720 kms) of roadway (comprising a mix of fast roads and small country lanes) the network creates endless opportunities to explore and discover the unexpected and impressive. Jersey also has a network of over 46 miles (74 kms) of Green Lanes where a speed limit of 15 mph (24 kph) is imposed and priority is given to walkers, cyclists and horse riders.

The sea dominates the landscape with views of the surrounding Atlantic Ocean accessible from virtually every point on the island. The coastline also offers infinite variety, majestic cliffs, exposed bays, sandy beaches and rocky coves are all immediately accessible by road or on foot and just a few minutes drive from any community.
