ISLAND HOPPING
Alderney
Why limit yourself to a holiday on one Channel Island , when it ’ s so simple to explore more !
Over the next three pages we ’ ve shown a selection of suggested itineraries which highlight just how easy it is to travel between each island by boat or plane , together with prices for a single centre stay on the smaller islands .
Our Jersey and Guernsey Explorer tour is a wonderful introduction to the two largest Channel Islands , while the Guernsey , Sark and Herm or Guernsey and Alderney tours make the most of the inter-island ferry services from Guernsey .
Of course , these are just suggestions and alternative combinations are available .
With cars prohibited on Sark , cycling , walking or horse-drawn carriages are the preferred mode of transport for exploring the unspoilt landscape and spectacular scenery . Sark has also achieved Dark Sky Status and , on a clear night , the sky becomes a magical ceiling of twinkling stars .
On the tranquil island of Herm , soak up quintessential island life by relaxing on its glorious beaches , strolling the scenic coastal paths and plunging into the crystal-clear waters .
Compact Alderney is just a short flight from Guernsey and is sure to wow nature lovers , thanks to a mix of beautiful landscapes and abundant wildlife . If you prefer the idea of an away-fromit-all stay on Alderney alone , direct flights are available from Southampton .
