Features of Natural Interest

The marine habitats formed around Jersey, which range from muddy bays to large reef systems, also support a wide variety of wildlife, which can be revealed only by diving or snorkelling. These include the cuckoo wrasse, conger eel and short-snouted seahorse, although the latter is very rare.
