Jersey as a cruising area
You can get to over 20 ports within a tide using Jersey as your base. The local cruising ground offers sheltered anchorages and attractive ports which include Saint Malo, Dinard, Granville and Carteret on the French coast, as well as the other Channel Islands of Guernsey, Sark, Herm and Alderney.
French destinations
French Customs and Immigration forms need to be submitted before arriving in Marinas in Normandy and Brittany if you are travelling from outside of the Schengen area.
Jersey Marinas cannot be held responsible for any changes of immigration laws and procedures, so we recommend that you contact your destination marina if unsure.
Digimap Guernsey offers a comprehensive up to date guide to neighbouring marinas on the French coast as well as a selection of south coast UK marinas.
