Despite a population of just slightly over 100,000 inhabitants, the country is actually the largest island within the Channel Islands and sits just 23 kilometers from the Cotentin Peninsula in Normandy.
While remaining a territory of the United Kingdom, Jersey has full control over self-governance, boasting a parliamentary democracy along with its own judicial, legal and financial system. Instead of cities, the island consists of 12 parishes that serve as numerous hubs. St Helier is the principal parish of the region, and most tourists also gravitate towards this location. There, you’ll be able to find the country’s financial hub, the Elizabeth Castle, Fort Regent Sports Centre, the Town Library, Cineworld, the Aquasplash Swimming Complex, bustling markets, a shopper’s High Street, and plenty of restaurants and bars along its scenic streets. For a little greenery, you can also visit the People’s Park, Millennium Town Park, the Parade park, and Howard Davis Park.
