Jersey, Guernsey & France

Travel to the Channel Islands and France from Poole

Guernsey

‍Take a day trip to Guernsey with Britanny Ferries. A place of surprise and contrast. Guernsey offers a heady mix of stunning scenery and the best of contemporary living—wild and rugged landscape and a thriving, cosmopolitan community with St. Peter Port - the island's harbour, at its centre. There is an array of contemporary restaurants, bars, busy shops, and boutiques, while in the marina, yachts rock in the gentle swell beneath the harbour's ancient guardian, Castle Cornet.

Jersey

An island big enough to lose yourself in, yet small enough to feel at home; British, yet located just off the coast of France. An island of discovery and natural beauty.

‍
The island's ancient heritage goes back almost 6,000 years, providing a mix of natural and cultural treasures. Tranquil harbours and beautiful beaches. Island tastes vary from traditional food to fusion cooking based on harbour-fresh seafood. Sophisticated shopping and nightlife, superb scenery, and cycle paths meander along specially designated green lanes. An array of attractions and a variety of events and festivals are on offer too. DFDS run regular ferries.

‍

St.Malo

St.Malo is a historic walled port city in Brittany and one of the most popular destinations in the region. St.Malo is famed for its old-walled city, where you will find beautiful old buildings in a maze of small, narrow streets, museums, restaurants, and cafés. Travel to Guernsey and then on to St.Malo with Brittany Ferries and travel to Jersey and then on to St.Malo with DFDS.

Cherbourg

Cherbourg is a town in Normandy, north-west France, situated at the north of the Cotentin Peninsula. One of France’s great channel ports, it is closely linked to French naval history and transatlantic adventures – the Titanic even made its final stop here on its fateful journey, as recalled at the Cite de la Mer, one of the port’s main tourist attractions. Travel with Brittany Ferries to Cherbourg.
