The Bailiwick of Jersey is a British Crown dependency off the coast of Normandy, France. As well as the island of Jersey itself, the bailiwick includes the nearly uninhabited islands of the Minquiers, Écréhous, the Pierres de Lecq and other rocks and reefs. Together with the bailiwick of Guernsey it forms the grouping known as the Channel Islands. The defence of all these islands is the responsibility of the United Kingdom. However, Jersey is part of neither the UK nor the European Union but is a separate possession of the Crown.
Jersey provides a great mix of beach life and countryside, heritage, culture and 2000 years of history. Alongside miles of superb white beaches, green lanes and eclectic cuisine, you'll struggle to choose between land and sea sports, guided walks and golf, ancient castles and museums, country pubs and bistros. A year-round programme of festivals makes Jersey an excellent destination for a short break or a longer stay.
The 2010 festivals - calendar of events - include the tour de Bretagne in April, the Jersey Boat Show in May, the Jersey Marathon on 3rd October and many more cultural, sporting and entertaining festivals throughout the year.
