Opening times, essentials, and a few local tips gathered into one calmer, easier-to-scan planning section.
Walking
From the centre of Gorey, head towards the coast along the main road (Rue de la Rocque). Continue walking until you reach the beach area. Once you reach the beach, you should see a clear pathway that leads towards the water. Follow this path straight to the beach until you reach the shore. You will see signs for Elizabeth Castle. At low tide, you can walk across the causeway to the castle. If the tide is high, you will need to take a boat that departs from the beach, which takes you directly to the castle.
Public Transport
If you prefer public transport, you can take a local bus from Gorey to St. Helier. Catch the bus number 1 or 15 from the bus stop located on Rue de la Rocque. It will take you directly to the St. Helier bus station. From there, walk towards the waterfront and follow the signs for Elizabeth Castle. You can also take a boat from the St. Helier harbour to the castle.
