Jersey has an excellent bus service. The fare is \u00a32.50 no matter how long or short your journey, and even the smallest villages have a bus stop. This morning we caught number 7 to a place on the north coast called the Devil’s Hole. The hole itself is a sea cave, and in stormy weather with a high tide seawater shoots upwards towards the cliff top. Conditions today are completely calm, but we’re not here to see the Hole itself. Rather, it looks like a good starting point for a cliff walk along the rugged north coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s very warm again, but there\u2019s a breeze blowing off the sea so we make good progress. Eventually our destination is in sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a tiny fishing village called Gr\u00e8ve de Lecq. It\u2019s very picturesque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next to the beach is a seafood shack. Time for lunch – we shared a lobster roll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beach is lovely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After lunch and a wander around the number 9 bus picked us up and took us back to St Helier. Jersey is only 9 miles by 5, so it doesn\u2019t take long to get anywhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
