"Herm Island" Herm by Tea4Two

Herm Travel Guide: 19 reviews and 40 photos

There is always something new to be discovered on Herm, the Jewel in the Channel Island's crown.

To walk around Herm Island is to be constantly captivated. No two moments are the same.

The changing tides, light and seasons create new views, colours and interests. You can comb beaches, search countless rockpools and cross newly exposed causeways to scale rocky islets.

You can watch flocks of terns or rare migratory birds, glimpse fish in crystal clear waters and spy wild flowers without ever meeting hordes of people. Even at the height of Summer Herm never becomes overcrowded.

The fact that the island is only one and a half miles long makes its diversity all the more remarkable and all the more accessible.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Paradise .... peaceful, calm, tranquil ....
Cons:It is very small!
