Seymour Tower and La Rocque
Landmark, Grouville
A coastal defence tower on a tidal rock about 2 km off the south-east coast, in a huge rocky intertidal area. Jersey Heritage rents it as self-catering accommodation; most visitors go on a guided low-tide walk.

Estimates, not quotes: worked out from the maximum tariff and the road distance. Traffic, waiting time, booking fees and extras change the final fare, and private-hire firms set their own prices. How we estimate.
Never walk out alone: the tide comes in fast and people get cut off every year. Walks start in Grouville (the operator confirms the meeting point on booking); La Rocque Harbour is the nearest road point.
