    Tips

    September 22, 2016

    At Cape Nez de Jobourg you not only have a magnificent view of the 3 Channel Islands. Here you can also penetrate into the caves below the rock and immerse yourself in a completely different world. You can tell immediately that the tours are not designed for the mass tourism, but for nature and landscape lovers. One should therefore not expect a typical cave visit, but let the purity of the air and tranquility of this area on itself. Instead, the motto is: the journey is the goal. The names of the caves are based on legends and have names such as Faerie or Lions Grotto. Another legend says that some grottos once served as a favorite hiding place for smugglers.
