Jersey - A Place inspired by 'Art & Literature'.

Although Jersey may not take advantage of its connections with creative writers, musicians and artists to the extent that other places do, the network of associations we have helps us understand the Island’s unique place in the modern world. Writers and other creative artists are linked to the Island in a variety of ways: by birth, as official appointees, as visitors (whether holidaymakers or to see friends) or, in the case of Victor Hugo, as an exile from France. The view of this Island from the perspective of the outsider or, more rarely, the Jersey-born writer who has had success in the wider world provides testimony to Jersey’s position as an autonomous Dependency of the Crown, neither English nor French, yet drawing from its relations with both. Inspired by the coastline with a combination of the countryside.  Tailor-made coach tours can be put together for short day tours, by simply visiting a few beauty spots, within our island with refreshment opportunities, and lunchtime stops. Experience these coastal, country, plus town walks. Themed walks in St. Helier town based around, Art & Sculpture. Admire our beaches such with a walk in St. Brelade Bay based on Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore, a walk through the area - Chateau la Chaire Vallee, when the infamous handkerchief tree in bloom during spring time, visiting East Coast bays such as Rozel Harbour on the northern coastal area.
