Jersey, officially known as the Bailiwick of Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands, between England and France. Jersey is an island measuring 46.2 square miles including reclaimed land and intertidal zone. It lies in the English Channel, about 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) from the Cotentin Peninsula in Normandy, France, and about 87 nautical miles (161 km; 100 mi) south of Great Britain.
A self-governing dependency of the United Kingdom, with a mix of British and French cultures, it's known for its beaches, cliffside walking trails, inland valleys, historic castles and the famous Jersey Zoo. The Jersey War Tunnels complex, in a former hospital excavated by slave labor, documents the island's 5-year German occupation during WWII.
