No need to worry about travelling with your bike
On the train, bus or plane, it is often very complicated and sometimes impossible to travel with this cumbersome companion: your bike. This is not the case on the ferry. Like any vehicle, your two-wheeler will be parked in the ship's garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Jersey-Sark crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will find it when you disembark on your arrival in Sark.
To get some sea air
There is no longer any doubt that sea air has many health benefits. In Jersey, as soon as you leave the port, take a walk on the deck of the Manche Îles Express boat and enjoy the sea spray and the invigorating oxygen-enriched sea air: a real thalasso cure and very effective for ventilating the lungs! A feeling of well-being will quickly take hold of you. This will allow you to start your holiday in Sark full of energy.
