Jersey Castles & Coast Long Weekend

Based in St Helier, use public buses to connect Jersey's tidal castles, WWII tunnels, and west coast lighthouse

Spend the first day exploring the capital and Elizabeth Castle, the second day visiting the east coast castle and the zoo, the third day discovering the War Tunnels and southwest coast, and wrap up on the final day in St Aubin. Buses cover all major attractions, so there is no need to rent a car. The north coast cliff paths are excluded but can replace Day 4 if you have more time. Ideal for first-timers and short family holidays.

Elizabeth Castle is closed in winter, and some attractions close from approximately November to March.
