Jersey is somewhere I’ve heard great things about. Everyone that has ever visited has raved about how pretty and idyllic it is so I’ve always been keen to visit.
The flight was just 45 minutes and it was so quick getting through the airport, even with the PCR testing it only took around 20-30 minutes in total.
Keep reading to see what we got up to during our jam packed day!
On the way from the airport, we stopped in St Aubin for a quick look around and a drink. This is a gorgeous little town around 10-15 minutes from St Helier (the centre of Jersey). We stopped at the Anchor Club which was amazing and looks out onto the harbour and the sea.
St Helier, the capital town of Jersey and the largest. This is a great base as it has good links to all other towns in Jersey and is also full of bars, restaurants and shops.
We spent the afternoon wandering around and taking in the gorgeous views of the harbour. We were so lucky with the weather - it was crisp and sunny. The High Street area is also filled with beautiful buildings and a variety of different shops and cafes.
The Jersey Markets are also widely-known and are super cute. Filled with florists and small businesses, this is the cutest place to spend half an hour (especially if the weather isn’t great).

In the evening we visited the Quayside Restaurant; right on the harbour serving up an array of seafood and meat dishes. I opted for the Grilled Prawns in a garlic sauce to start and the Soy Glazed Duck with dauphinois potatoes and pak choi for my main. The food was absolutely delicious and I loved the location. This would be gorgeous on a summer evening or lunch time overlooking the harbour.

I can’t wait to go back & see more of Jersey! It is the perfect mini getaway spot.
