Sailing holidays Z10-22: Normandie & Channel Islands

Z10-22: Sailing in Normandie & around the Channel Islands  

From the old fortified town of St. Malo we will probably sail to Granville, another beautiful town. The planning depends on the tide, the sea lock at St. Malo operates at high tide and Granville has a sill, so the harbour does not run dry. A nice puzzle, because we would also lik eto have the current with us. Otherwise, or the day after, we will sail to Iles des Chausey, the only French Channel island. It has no harbour, but if as long as it is not spring tide, we can anchor in a sheltered location and have a lovely walk. The small archipelago of Iles des Chausey consists of 52 small islands, but at low tide, there are 365. Characteristic and distinctive from the other Channel Islands are the beautiful white beaches, we might even be able to swim here.

We will probably sail to an anchorage around Jersey and the island of Geurnsey and Sark are also on the programme. The plan is to spend a day at Geurnsey in St. Peter Port for a nice long walk and perhaps visit a lively pub in the evening. We will anchor at the small island of Sark where there will also be time for a walk and off course tea and scones. An extra bonus are the brambles along the road. Another harbour to visit is Carteret on the coast of Normandy, for this port the tide has to be calculated very accurately, but this nice town with sand dunes is worth a visit. We end up in St. Helier on Jersey, where we have dinner at a delicious Pizzeria (the best in the world)!

The tidal difference between low and high water is enormous in this sailing area. Which is one of the charms, strong tidal currents and a great tidal differences of up to 12 metres at spring tide. “Not for the faint hearted”. Because of the huge tides, the landscape changes continuously, a beautiful sight with the numerous extraordinary rock formations.

The daily sailing distances are between 11 and 25 miles.
The above schedule is subject to weather, wind and tide.
