Jersey, of the Channel Islands is a superb holiday retreat and specifically camping there is fantastic. Jersey combines the best of the British and of the French and has created a perfect sub-culture unique to itself. The people are peaceful, friendly and take great pride in their lovely little island and camping is a perfect way to discover all of the things that make Jersey so cherished.
If you are considering camping in Jersey, consider the following: From the UK you can pack up your caravan or car with all of your own kit and take it to Jersey on a ferry. If you fancy a spot of camping, but don’t have much in the way of tents, sleeping bags or camp cookery, many campsites in Jersey can rent a variety of equipment to you. You can rent caravans, tents, bikes; all sorts.
Another consideration should be where on the island you would like to stay. Perhaps you prefer to be inland surrounded by nature, such as at the Beuvelande Campsite where you can paddle about in their heated pool or rent cycles to explore the local scenery.
