    TOUR CX - HERM ISLAND

    Excursions

    • £35 - £45
    • Approx. 5 hours
    • Limited capacity
    • A walking tour

    Upon arrival at the harbour, we will take an approximate 60-minute walk across the common to Shell Beach, where we won’t be able to resist walking along the strand looking for shells. The path continues to Belvoir Bay, a little sandy lagoon, perfect for relaxing with an ice cream on a hot day. A woodland path stretches up to the top of the island, where we can visit the little church of St Tugual, which dates from the 11th century.

    Once we have descended the hill, we can purchase a snack if we wish (at our own expense) and then enjoy our free time. We may wish to relax on the beach near the harbour, watch the boats or venture onto the cliff paths overlooking the small island of Jethou. There are small shops, which stock a variety of gifts and souvenirs.

     

    We return by boat to Guernsey from the harbour or the Rosaire steps (depending on tidal conditions).

     

    TOUR NOTES: This tour is not suitable for wheelchair users or guests with limited mobility, as it is predominantly a walking tour and there are numerous steps. A variety of terrain will be encountered, including steep slopes, cliff paths, beach paths and grass. We should have a couple of hours of free time. Public toilet facilities are available outside Mermaid Tea Gardens and at Shell Beach. Guests are advised to wear comfortable shoes and to come prepared for the weather conditions on the day. Please note that the boat to and from Herm is a scheduled ferry, so also open to members of the general public. This five hour tour can only operate when we are in port long enough, otherwise a three hour tour will be operating.

    DESCRIPTION CORRECT FOR 2011 CRUISES - PLEASE NOTE THIS TOUR CAN ONLY OPERATE WHEN WE ARE IN ST PETER PORT FOR LONG ENOUGH
