Green island
Green Island is a small island off Jersey featuring rocky coastlines and sparse low vegetation. The terrain is mostly flat to gently sloping with water views stretching in all directions.
The island was named after the green vegetation that once covered much of its surface. Over time it has shifted from a private refuge to a lesser-known natural destination.
The island is a quiet retreat mostly visited by locals seeking time in nature. The atmosphere reflects a desire to keep the place undisturbed and close to its natural state.
The island is best visited during calm weather when the crossing is manageable. Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and clothing for changing weather conditions.
The island is valued by birdwatchers as many migratory species stop here to rest. The rocky cliffs provide natural nesting sites for seabirds, making it an important habitat.
