Car Hire: Jersey 

 

Discovering the Island Charm with Rhinocarhire in Jersey

 

Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, is a tapestry of breathtaking coastlines, verdant landscapes, and rich history. An island where English and French influences beautifully intertwine, hiring a car with Rhinocarhire offers you the freedom to delve deep into Jersey's enchanting corners.

Airport Proximity:
Jersey Airport, situated in the parish of Saint Peter, is your primary gateway to the island. From the airport, it's a mere 15-minute drive to Saint Helier, the capital, providing immediate immersion into the island's vibrant culture.

Tolls:
One of the joys of driving in Jersey is that there are no toll roads. The entire island is accessible without additional charges, ensuring a hassle-free driving experience.

Road Conditions:
Jersey’s road network is generally well-maintained. However, it's essential to be cautious of the island's winding lanes and to adhere to the speed limits, which can be as low as 15 mph in Green Lane zones.

Traffic Insights:
While Jersey is relatively small, traffic can build up during peak times, especially in Saint Helier. Given the island's size, even during busy periods, most destinations are easily reachable within a short time frame.

Recommended Attractions & Routes:

  1. Saint Helier: Beyond its shopping streets and cafés, explore sites like Elizabeth Castle. From the airport, head southeast on Route de l'Aéroport and continue on La Route de Beaumont.

  2. Gorey: Famous for Mont Orgueil Castle, Gorey is a scenic coastal village. It's a 25-minute drive from Saint Helier, primarily via Route de la Côte.

  3. Saint Brelade: Renowned for its bay and beach, this is the perfect spot for relaxation. From Saint Helier, take Route de Saint Aubin and La Route de Noirmont, and you'll arrive in about 15 minutes.

  4. Jersey War Tunnels: Delve into Jersey's wartime history. Located in Saint Lawrence, it's just a 15-minute drive from the capital via Route du Mont à l'Abbé.

  5. La Corbière Lighthouse: Situated on the island's southwestern tip, this iconic lighthouse is a must-visit, especially during sunset. From Saint Helier, take La Route de la Haule and B35; you'll be there in roughly 20 minutes.

Benefits of Hiring with Rhinocarhire:

  • Flexibility: While Jersey is small, its attractions are vast. A car ensures you see more in less time.

  • Comfort: Whether you're beach-hopping or exploring inland attractions, enjoy the luxury of your vehicle waiting for you.

  • Tailored Experience: Select from a range of vehicles to suit your journey, be it a romantic getaway or a family adventure.

Conclusion:
Jersey, with its eclectic mix of British and French heritages, is an island of endless exploration. Rhinocarhire empowers your journey, turning every drive into a story worth sharing.
