Alderney Travel Guide - Overview

Alderney, the third-largest of the Channel Islands, has pledged allegiance to the English Crown for close on 1,000 years and is frequently described as the most British of the Channel Islands. Yet, Alderney (Aurigny in French) has a distinctly French flavour, which is not surprising as the island’s closest neighbour, France, is only 13km (8 miles) away. A little oasis where time seems to have stopped, Alderney offers the perfect ingredients for a short or long holiday, at any time of the year.

Unlike the other Channel Islands, Alderney has not been affected by mainstream tourism. Travellers will be able to wind down and enjoy Alderney's quality of life, hospitality and gastronomy. There is something for everyone every week of the year. This little island boasts over 30 social, sporting and cultural clubs and associations who, between them, provide a busy diary of events throughout the year. From golf, tennis, fishing, walks across the common and the rugged cliffs, to sandy and quiet beaches and an abundance of flora and fauna (including wild pheasants, black rabbits and blonde hedgehogs), Alderney has a lot to offer.
