The Isle of Sark Shipping Company’s new ferry, the Corsaire de Sercq, came into service today and will be doing the crossing from Guernsey in just 35 minutes, a quarter of an hour faster than the older vessels. The ferry, whose name translates as the ‘Sark Pirate’, is 12 years old and was bought from a company in France where it was operating out of St Malo.

Sark’s cliff tops, roadsides and meadows are buzzing with butterflies, bees and other insects but, to give nature a helping hand, two fields have been set aside and planted with special seed mixtures to feed our wildlife.
