17.Main Holiday Islands
Channel Islands
The two main islands,Jersey and Guernsey,are remarkable in that they present a combination of enjoyment peace and quiet.Neither island is very big (only ten miles long) and so all parts of these coasts are easily reached from the main centers-St.Helier and St.Peter Port.In both these towns and particularly in Jersey's St.Helier are concentrated (集中) the amusements of really big resorts (休養(yǎng)地).The nearness of France gives a continental atmosphere; the weather is far better than that in England.The other three islands,Jethou,Herm and Sark are small and quiet.
Isles of Scilly
The islands are really small and quiet; and the weather is warm but windy.The islands are excellent for those who enjoy exploring (探險) small inlets (水灣),creeks (小溪) and bays on foot,or even better in a boat.
Isle of Wight
The island is 24miles across and therefore quite large.The scenery is good and varied.The resorts are neither overlarge nor showy.The crowds seem content with entertaining but quieter holidays.The island has the best sunshine record in Britain.
Isle of Man
An island with unique atmosphere-in some indefinable (難以描述的) way it is different from England,Scotland or Wales.Thirty miles long,with good roads and good public transport,the mountains,hills and glens (幽谷) are easily reached.Douglas is a major British resort and other resorts are lively.
