WHAT TO DO IN SARK
On a clear night, you don't need to visit an observatory, or even use a telescope, to experience the stellar displays in Sark's famous Dark Skies.
Stargazing
Sark is a gift for anyone who likes walking. It's blessed with an abundance of rugged coastline and beautiful landscape that’s tailor-made for exploring by foot.
Walking

Breathtaking. Magical. Untouched. Timewarp.
Just a few of the words often applied to Sark; a tiny (Just 3.25 miles long by 1.5 miles wide), colourful, enchanting little island nestling between England and France, yet which feels like neither. In fact, Sark – lying just 80 miles off the South Coast and the smallest of the four main Channel Islands at just a handful of square miles – feels like nowhere else you’ve ever been.
​
Thanks in part to its well-known absence of any cars, and with no airport and only the occasional tractor for supplies, visitors immediately sense how different life is on this haven from anywhere else.
​
From the moment you are welcomed after arriving by boat, time seems to slow down as you enter a realm of stunning landscapes, wild flora, picturesque hedgerows, lovely beaches and tranquil surroundings.
​
Quiet lanes end in spectacular coastline, with undulating coastline, rocky outcrops and ancient granite houses scattered around to catch the eye amid your breathtaking surroundings.
