Discover Ferries has named Guernsey’s L’Ancresse Common as one of the 10 most beautiful sights reached by water.
The industry body, which represents 13 ferry operators in the UK and Ireland, compiled the list to mark the start of Big Ferry Fortnight.
Joining L’Ancresse on the list is Ireland’s Lough Tay in the Wicklow Mountains National Park, Bruges in Belgium and The Needles on the coast of the Isle of Wight.
‘The land and seascapes on our list are as diverse as the types of holidays ferry passengers enjoy,’ said Emma Batchelor, director of Discover Ferries.
‘So whether you are seeking a longer, cruise-style ferry experience to travel to Ireland or continental Europe, or are looking to experience natural beauty closer to home with a shorter crossing – there are plenty of options.’
Big Ferry Fortnight runs from 27 February to 12 March and offers more than 600 free pairs of ferry tickets to residents of the UK, Isle of Man and Northern Ireland. Unfortunately, the free ticket ballot is not open to Channel Island residents.
