The story

Kempt Tower was built in 1834 as part of the coastal defences along St Ouen's Bay and now sits at the edge of Les Mielles — Jersey's protected dune system. The surrounding reserve is one of the best places on the island to spot orchids, dartford warblers and green lizards basking in spring sunshine.

What to expect

Pair the long bay views from the tower with a slow walk through one of Europe's richest dune habitats.

Good to know

Tower interior is only open occasionally; the surrounding paths are free and always accessible.
