Aurigny, Guernsey's airline, has announced new flights from London Stansted to the Channel Islands, making the archipelago with Caribbean-style beaches more accessible. The three-times-weekly service begins on 31 March, operating Sundays, Mondays and Fridays.
The islands, including Guernsey, Herm, Sark and Alderney, offer white sands and clear waters. Cobo Bay is a popular beach with amenities, while Petit Port offers seclusion after descending 270 steps. Sark and Herm are car-free, ideal for a peaceful getaway.
Activities include kayaking to see puffins in April, the La Beltane May Day festival on Sark, and the Spring Walking Festival in May and June. History enthusiasts can explore WWII bunkers and museums, with the 80th anniversary of Liberation Day on 9 May 2025.
Additional flights from London City, Liverpool, Edinburgh (from May 2024) and Cornwall Newquay (from July 2024) will supplement existing routes. Return flights from Stansted start at £129.98 per person.
