I've recently got back from the fabulous Channel Island of Jersey where we had SUCH an awesome time that I wanted to share with you 12 reasons why this is such a brilliant British Isles holiday destination and not to be missed. It's got amazing beaches, food and activities like kayaking, cycling and paddle boarding all in stunning scenery where the sand is so white, the sea is so blue and the rocks are tinged red. Food is also delicious here - we ate yummy mussels (at El Tico Beach Cantina) , crab tacos (at the Crab Shack in St. Brelade's Bay) and 12-hour slow-cooked beef brisket (at BJ's Brewery and Smokehouse). Every dish was SO tasty and memorable. There's no such thing as a bad meal in Jersey. Then there's real Jersey ice-cream which HAS to be tasted and real Jersey money (the island has its own currency) to be spent. There are great hikes, castles (we visited Mont Orgueil castlle) and potatoes. Jersey is famous for its Jersey Royals. And capital St. Helier is not to be missed either - it's got a really French feel about it (it's close to France and used to be owned by France). And you can't leave without visiting the War Tunnels either - Jersey was occupied by the Germans during World War 2 and these tunnels were built by the Germans as their HQ and now its been turned into a living history museum, showing how the islanders survived and died during the war. And voila, 12 good reasons why the Channel Island of Jersey is such an awesome British Isles holiday destination and not to be missed!
