Gemmology — Jersey Uncovered

Come with us on a three-day island adventure, uncovering the jewels of land and sea.

Pearl Stringing

Spend the mornings with Jersey Pearl, learning the elegant art of Pearl stringing, the techniques, and tips of knotting pearls with our expert pearl stringers, and take away with you your beautiful personal creation.

Discover Jersey

In the afternoons, enjoy time with your Jersey Uncovered Guides as they share the Jewels of our Island.

Sample the jewels of the land and sea! Join a Jersey Uncovered ‘Flavours of Jersey Tour and find out about Jersey’s local produce and the diverse tastes that islanders enjoy. Whether it’s a fresh oyster from Jersey’s clean waters, a tasty selection of artisan cheeses, a delicious cupcake made with local products from an independent bakery, or a traditional Jersey Wonder … all will be revealed on the tour as you stroll through the historic streets of our old town.

Visit an ancient harbour and enjoy a scrumptious lunch in an ancient pub! Don’t miss out on a fabulous lunch at one of Jersey’s oldest pubs. Nestled in a delightful harbour on the island’s north-east Coast, just a short stroll from the beach and sea, the Rozel Bay Inn, with it's rustic country charm, and a reputation for exceptional food, is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the best that Jersey has to offer. A great way to start your afternoon adventure.
Enjoy the view from the top of an 800 year old castle! Visit our 13th century castle and embark on a time travelling adventure. Discover its lost secrets and uncover its mysteries, from the outer ward right to the roof of the residential apartments with its sweeping views over the Royal Bay of Grouville. Our journey takes us through hidden stairways, and corridors, to secret rooms, prisoners’ towers and perhaps a dragon’s lair. Understand why the castle was built, and by whom, and about the famous and infamous characters who lived (and some who died) there.

Grape and Garnets

Enjoy an entertaining evening of Grapes and Garnets with a talk featuring these fascinating gemstones presented by the knowledgeable and entertaining Kerry Gregory of Gemmology Rocks. Each gemstone will be accompanied by a tasting of some especially selected wines to match the sparkling gems presented by Kerry.

The evening takes place in the charming surroundings of a local Wine Cave, found in an 18th century St Helier cellar, and will be rounded off with a light bite charcuterie board by Jersey Kitchen, providing a wide selection of British and Continental cheeses, cooked meats, and salads.
