Occupied: Behind Barbed<br />
Wire - Exhibition<br />
An exhibition of artwork and artefacts<br />
made by those deported whilst in their<br />
internment camps, including items<br />
recycled from Red Cross parcels, such as<br />
the cardboard, the string, the cellophane<br />
packing material, the tins themselves and<br />
the wooden parcel crates. These were all<br />
turned into a variety of objects. Unless<br />
we tell the story while the last of these<br />
deportees are alive all the unique,<br />
moving and sometimes beautiful stories<br />
would be lost, as would all of the<br />
personal collections in people's attics -<br />
crucially, these items tell the story of<br />
internment. They speak of the<br />
experience of deportation and<br />
internment of these 2,200 people<br />
deported from the Channel Islands<br />
during World War II.<br />

The Queen by Chris Levine<br />
This year <strong>Jersey</strong> Heritage joins the<br />
Island's Jubilee celebrations with an<br />
exhibition called The Queen by Chris<br />
Levine. Well known in England for his<br />
striking holographic portraits and<br />
abstractions, in 2004 Chris Levine was<br />
commissioned to make a portrait of the<br />
Queen as part of <strong>Jersey</strong>'s<br />
celebrations of its 800-year old<br />
relationship with the monarchy. The<br />
resulting pictures – both traditional and<br />
lenticular - have revolutionized the art of<br />
royal portraiture, taking it into a visual,<br />
technological, and psychological realm<br />
never before attempted. The Queen by<br />
Chris Levine is a display of some of those<br />
images and 3-D data sets of Her<br />
Majesty.<br />

Crash and the Great Depression,<br />

The Curious Incident of<br />
the Dog in the Night<br />
Mark Haddon’s celebrated multiaward-winning<br />
novel is beautifully and<br />

seven minutes after midnight and<br />
Christopher is under suspicion. He<br />
records each fact in his book to solve<br />
the mystery. He has an extraordinary<br />
brain, exceptional at maths but illequipped<br />
to interpret everyday life. He<br />
has never ventured alone beyond the<br />

touched and he distrusts strangers.<br />
But his detective work, forbidden by<br />
his father, takes him on a frightening<br />
journey that upturns his world.<br />

An exhibition of artwork and artefacts<br />
made by those deported whilst in their<br />
internment camps, including items<br />
recycled from Red Cross parcels, such as<br />
the cardboard, the string, the cellophane<br />
packing material, the tins themselves and<br />
the wooden parcel crates. These were all<br />
turned into a variety of objects. Unless<br />
we tell the story while the last of these<br />
deportees are alive all the unique,<br />
moving and sometimes beautiful stories<br />
would be lost, as would all of the<br />
personal collections in people's attics -<br />
crucially, these items tell the story of<br />
internment. They speak of the<br />
experience of deportation and<br />
internment of these 2,200 people<br />
deported from the Channel Islands<br />
during World War II.<br />

The Queen by Chris Levine<br />
This year <strong>Jersey</strong> Heritage joins the<br />
Island's Jubilee celebrations with an<br />
exhibition called The Queen by Chris<br />
Levine. Well known in England for his<br />
striking holographic portraits and<br />
abstractions, in 2004 Chris Levine was<br />
commissioned to make a portrait of the<br />
Queen as part of <strong>Jersey</strong>'s<br />
celebrations of its 800-year old<br />
relationship with the monarchy. The<br />
resulting pictures – both traditional and<br />
lenticular - have revolutionized the art of<br />
royal portraiture, taking it into a visual,<br />
technological, and psychological realm<br />
never before attempted. The Queen by<br />
Chris Levine is a display of some of those<br />
images and 3-D data sets of Her<br />
Majesty.<br />

Stepping Out<br />
with the<br />
National Trust for <strong>Jersey</strong> -<br />
Birds on the edge<br />
The cliff tops along the Island’s north<br />
coast are amongst the most<br />
spectacular scenery in the Channel<br />
Islands. These rugged cliffs are home to<br />
seabirds at their base as well as<br />
songbirds inhabiting the land at their<br />
tops. Sadly, following the abandonment<br />
of farming along much of this wild area,<br />
the diversity of wildlife has dramatically<br />
decreased. Join Dr. Glyn Young,<br />
Conservation Biologist at Durrell, to<br />
walk along the cliff path to see those<br />
birds that survive and learn about<br />
exciting plans to restore the area and<br />
return the formerly resident Red-billed<br />
chough.<br />

Walk with the stars at<br />
your feet<br />
As night descends and the ocean<br />
recedes, star like shapes of luminous<br />
green (bio-luminescence) begin to<br />
twinkle and sparkle in a few special<br />
spots off the south east coast. Expect<br />
to get your feet wet -maybe up to the<br />
knees- as you discover and<br />
experience the uniqueness of this area.<br />
In just a few hours the ocean will<br />
return and cover your footprints by up<br />

Areas of Natural Interest<br />
La Lande de Ouest<br />
Part of the dry coastal heathland lying<br />
above the cliffs along the greater part of<br />
the south-west coast. A designated Site<br />
of Special Interest (SSI) and rich in flora<br />
and fauna, this area is an important part<br />
of theisland’s landscape, and biodiversity.<br />
A great area for walking and bird watching.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Le Noir Pré<br />
Often known simply as “The Orchid<br />
Field”, this unique site actually consists<br />
of two distinct but adjoining wet<br />
meadows. Le Noir Pré and the smaller<br />
Le Clos du Seigneur. The site is one of<br />
the last remaining strongholds of the<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Orchid or loose-flowered<br />
Orchid (Orchis Laxiflora). Orchid<br />
flowering season May and June.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Le Blanches Banques<br />
The sand dune system at the southern<br />
end of St Ouen’s Bay is recognised as<br />
an SSI and more than 400 plantspecies<br />
have been recorded here. It also provides<br />
home to the super <strong>Jersey</strong> Green Lizard.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Les Landes<br />
This coastal heathland is the most<br />
spectacular aspect of <strong>Jersey</strong>’s wild<br />
environments. Les Landes is <strong>Jersey</strong>’s<br />
largest single expanse of maritime<br />
heathland covering 160 hectares and<br />
bound by 3 km of high granite cliffs.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Portelet Common<br />
With a mixture of dramatic sea views and<br />
a habitat typical of an area subjected to<br />
the prevailing south-westerly wind, the<br />
common has thick gorse cover, dwarf<br />
shrub heathland and lichen-rich grassland.<br />
Peaking at one sixty one metres above<br />
sea level and covering thirty one<br />
hectares this scenery is not to be missed.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Ramsar Sites<br />
These are areas listed on the Ramstar<br />
List of Westland’s of International<br />
Importance which concerns the<br />
conservation and wise use of wetlands<br />
and their resources. <strong>Jersey</strong> has four!<br />
These magnificent sites are; the<br />
south-east coast of <strong>Jersey</strong>, Le<br />
Minquiers, Les Ècréhous, and Les<br />
Dirouilles, and Les Pierres de lecq (The<br />
Paternosters). These sites are truly<br />
unique and worth a visit; however,<br />
three of these sites are offshore reefs<br />
and require a trip by boat. Check out<br />
the “Activities” section of the<br />
operators who can take you on a short<br />
boat trip to see these sites. The south<br />
coast area can be walked around and<br />
guided walks are available (contact<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Walk Adventures – see<br />
“Activities”). Important! If you wish to<br />
walk around the area independently<br />
please seek advice first as the tide rises<br />
rapidly and you can become stranded if<br />
unprepared. Knowledge of the tides is<br />
essentially. <strong>Jersey</strong> Tourism can provide<br />
advice if necessary but recommends<br />
that you employ a guide. See “Walking”<br />
section of this guide.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
Reservoirs<br />
There are several reservoirs within<br />
the island which can be walked<br />
around. These include Queen’s Valley<br />
and Val de la Mare. Other reservoirs<br />
include Millbrook, Grands Vaux,<br />
Handois, Mourier Valley and<br />
Dannemarche.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
St Catherine’s Woods<br />
Also known as Rozel Woods, this<br />
woodland is set in a deep-cut,<br />
steep-sided valley. A stream running<br />
through the valley floor has helped<br />
develop a wide range of habitats<br />
within the woodland.<br />
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––<br />
St Ouen’s Pond<br />
(La Mare au Seigneur).<br />
Probably the most significant wetland<br />
in <strong>Jersey</strong>, it is a dedicated nature<br />
reserve with open water, reed beds<br />
and a marshy perimeter providing<br />
habitats for fish, insects, flowers and<br />
birds, including the Marsh Harrier<br />
which can often be seen gliding<br />
above the pond.<br />

<strong>Jersey</strong> for more than 300 years.<br />
The castle is accessible at low<br />

Elizabeth Castle is a perfect place<br />
to spend a day exploring <strong>Jersey</strong>'s<br />
history. Work began on the<br />
castle in the 1590s and it was<br />
home to Sir Walter Raleigh while<br />
he was Governor of <strong>Jersey</strong> and<br />
the future King Charles II sought<br />
refuge at Elizabeth Castle during<br />
the English Civil War. During the<br />
German Occupation the castle<br />
was refortified and used as one of<br />
the stongpoints commanding the<br />
sea approaches to St Helier. Climb<br />
the battlements, explore the<br />
turrets and bunkers and discover<br />
the Hermitage where St Helier is<br />
thought to have lived around 500<br />
A.D. Visit the exhibitions which<br />
explain the role of the castle in<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong>’s history and share the<br />
experience of the soldiers who<br />
were garrisoned here.<br />

<strong>Jersey</strong>’s<br />
Garden Treasure<br />
Everyone loves a garden! Whether you are a novice,<br />
an experienced enthusiast or simply an armchair<br />
gardener, you will find lots to interest you in Samarès<br />
Manor’s richly planted gardens; they contain a<br />
multitude of environmental conditions and design<br />
styles and are aptly set in the tranquil grounds of one<br />
of <strong>Jersey</strong>’s foremost stately homes.<br />
Originally created in the 1920s by millionaire<br />
shipping magnate and philanthropist, Sir James<br />
Knott, the gardens have, in recent years, seen<br />
significant developments and the introduction of<br />
major new areas of planting. The exuberant exotics<br />
garden, the Mediterranean style drought garden, the<br />
rose and lavender garden and conservation areas are<br />
good examples. This strategy takes the gardens<br />
further down the road to creating <strong>Jersey</strong>’s Kew.<br />
However, much of the original design still remains<br />
including the Japanese Garden, built using limestone<br />
from the north of England, numerous ponds, islands,<br />
water gardens and camellia plantations.<br />
Many of the culinary herbs are used in the Herb<br />
Garden Café, adding flavour and attractive garnish to<br />
delicious home-made dishes. The chef’s garden is an<br />
exceptionally fertile area where culinary delicacies<br />
are grown.<br />
Education and Family<br />
Learn about the wildlife and plants that abound at<br />
Samarès with the family nature quiz or explore the<br />
living willow labyrinth, the jungle path and<br />
woodland walks. Those interested in history and<br />
heritage can tour the manor house or visit the Rural<br />
Life and Carriage Museum.<br />
Samarés Manor’s Herb Garden<br />
Take a bird’s eye view of Samarès Manor’s spectacular<br />
walled herb garden, one of the most comprehensive<br />
in Europe. The viewing platform, high above the<br />
walls, adds an extra dimension to this unique<br />
collection of herbs. The formal planting scheme is the<br />
work of internationally renowned garden designer,<br />
John Brookes. The garden is a venue for popular talks<br />
on herbs and their uses.<br />
The Gardens of Samarès Manor are open to the<br />
public, April 7th to <strong>October</strong> 13th.

<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl<br />
The Pearl<br />
Experts<br />
Since the <strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl family started the business<br />
27 years ago, the pearl industry has seen huge<br />
developments both in terms of its levels of production,<br />
as well as the styles and colours now available on the<br />
market.<br />
Freshwater pearls, which are grown in large mussels, are<br />
naturally found in shades ranging from warm white<br />
through to blush pink and<br />
pale purple, nowadays<br />
however these natural gems<br />
are also being dyed after<br />
harvesting to create the most<br />
fantastic range of rainbow<br />
colours, from peppermint<br />
green and midnight blue<br />
through to hot fuchsia pink<br />
and honey yellow.<br />
Within the last decade there<br />
has also been expansion<br />
within the shape of the<br />
freshwater pearl- traditionally<br />
round, oval or pear-drop<br />
shape, the farms in China,<br />
where the majority of the<br />
Freshwater pearls are grown,<br />
are now able to create<br />
irregular and unusual shaped<br />
pearls such as the Keshi<br />
pearl - which is commonly<br />
described as the cornflake<br />
pearl as well as the Biwa pearl,<br />
a delicate and elegant long<br />
stick shape.<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl has always worked very closely with their<br />
suppliersallaroundtheworld,makingsurethatitisonly<br />
the highest quality pearls that reach the shop floor.<br />
As well as sourcing pearls directly<br />
from the Pearl farms in the Far East,<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl also has an<br />
in-house design team that are<br />
regularly working on new designs<br />
and collections.<br />
To celebrate their 25th<br />
anniversary three new<br />
collections were introduced in<br />
the range for 2010. The Lily Collection -<br />
delicate rose ehite freshwater pearls<br />
have been used to create this<br />
elegant and feminine range.<br />
The Alice Collection - working with<br />
the ever-popular natural coloured<br />
freshwater button pearls, this collection set on silver is<br />
ideally suited for those looking to start their love affair<br />
with pearls!<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl also introduced their Freshwater Pearl<br />
Charm Collection - using the <strong>Jersey</strong> shoreline as<br />
inspiration, this collection was exclusively design for<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Pearl and has charms ranging from beautifully<br />
crafted lobster, starfish and oyster shell designs to a<br />
map of <strong>Jersey</strong> - the perfect memento of a visit to our<br />
wonderful island.<br />

History of Gold<br />
Since the beginning of civilisation man has<br />
placed great value upon gold. Over the centuries<br />
it has taken many forms, from gold nuggets,<br />
ingots and coins, even as far back as 4,000BC<br />
to the Egyptians using it to adorn themselves<br />
and decorate the tombs and temples of the<br />
Egyptian empire.<br />
Gold mining countries are mainly Australia,<br />
U.S.A, China, Peru and Russia, but the world<br />
leaders are South Africa. They have been<br />
mining in this region for over 100 years,<br />
although the largest gold nugget was discovered<br />
in Australia in 1869 weighing a massive<br />
72 kilograms, a replica is now displayed at<br />
<strong>Jersey</strong> Goldsmiths.<br />
The founder’s grand-daughter Julia Williams,<br />
now manager at <strong>Jersey</strong> Goldsmiths, says<br />
“We have, over the years, welcomed 7.5 million<br />
visitors to <strong>Jersey</strong> Goldsmiths and I feel that<br />
we are ambassadors for <strong>Jersey</strong>. Our visitors<br />
leave with a beautiful piece of <strong>Jersey</strong> jewellery<br />
and a keepsake of their holiday which is very<br />
special to me.”<br />
In the last 25 years we have sold 3,484,500<br />
inches of chain which is 217,787 necklaces - the<br />
equivalent or 55 miles of chain, more than the<br />
length of <strong>Jersey</strong>’s coastline.<br />
WE ARE OPEN<br />
7 days a week from<br />
9.30am - 5.30pm<br />
“We have such an exciting year<br />
ahead and look forward to seeing<br />
all our visitors in <strong>2012</strong>”<br />
Julia Williams, Manager

The Restaurant is calm and inviting, with unusual art<br />
adding a fun vibe. You’ll find a real mix of customers and<br />
the staff are incredibly efficient and friendly. THE INN has<br />
some of the best Chefs in <strong>Jersey</strong>, who will prepare for<br />
you fresh locally caught fish, tender steaks and house<br />
specialities - loads to choose from.<br />
THE INN’s Bar has a great range of wines and real ales,<br />
as well as serving food like <strong>Jersey</strong>’s biggest homemade<br />
burger or fresh pizzas, and the Live music nights on<br />
Fridays with free tapas are a real treat.<br />
Another place popular with locals as you explore the<br />
Island is the Seymour Inn in Grouville, a traditional <strong>Jersey</strong><br />
pub with a warm welcome and great pub grub. The<br />
menu has lots of choice including, unsurprisingly being<br />
surrounded by sea, plenty of delicious fish dishes. The<br />
oysters come from right across the road and you can<br />
even see the oyster beds! The menu has four different<br />
ways to enjoy them – a must!<br />
In Summer the al fresco areas are perfect to enjoy the<br />
beach views with a chilled glass of wine or a pint of real<br />
ale and a tasty bite to eat.<br />
Two <strong>Jersey</strong> gems, both with excellent food and friendly<br />
service, THE INN and the Seymour Inn won’t disappoint.<br />

throughout <strong>Jersey</strong>.<br />
They have to be used:<br />
MONDAY TO SATURDAY<br />
(INCLUSIVE) 8.00 am to 5.00 pm<br />
There are also a number of on-street<br />
and residents parking zones where<br />
parking is chargeable after 5.00pm<br />
and on Sundays. Please carefully<br />
check parking signs for details.<br />
You must use them whenever you<br />
park on-street (RED and YELLOW)<br />
zones and in all car parks where you<br />
see the above sign:<br />
The charge for parking on-street is<br />
1 Unit per stay. This would be 20<br />
minutes in a YELLOW zone and 1<br />
hour in a RED zone.<br />
In car parks the charge is variable –<br />
see the notice boards at the<br />
entrance and within each car park<br />
for details of the tariff.<br />
You can buy books of Paycards<br />
wherever you see a sign similar to<br />
the one above displayed in shops,<br />
garages, hotels, your hire-car<br />
company, the car ferry, the Tourist<br />
Information Office or the Car Park<br />
Administration Office in Sand Street.<br />

denominations – 1 Unit, 2 Units and<br />
4 Units. There are 10 Paycards in<br />
each book, but you can buy them<br />
singly.<br />

A team of professional lifeguards patrol key beaches from mid May to the end of<br />
<strong>September</strong>. Look out for the red and yellow flags which indicate the patrolled<br />
areas for swimming. Swim within the flags, but note that when a red flag is flying<br />
the conditions are dangerous and unsuitable for swimming. <strong>Jersey</strong> has some of<br />
the largest tidal flows in the world so take care when bathing or exploring the<br />
seashore. The beach lifeguard team is only too happy to advise swimmers<br />
regarding beach safety, please ask.<br />
