THERE have been depressingly few picture-perfect days in recent weeks…

Nevertheless, Jersey has been selected for a shortlist of Europe’s most desirable islands.

Wanderlust Magazine, one of the UK’s largest and longest-running travel publications, has put the Island up against 22 other jurisdictions to contest the honour.

It is the 22nd time that the annual awards, which highlight readers’ favourite destinations, have been held. And this year Jersey is the only Channel Island in the category.

Last year, Ireland won, with Jersey placing tenth.

The Island now faces stiff competition from the likes of Gran Canaria, Mallorca and Crete.

Islanders and visitors can cast their votes until Wednesday 18 October by completing an online form at: wanderlustmagazine.typeform.com/to/cH26XO02.

While voting, readers can also enter a competition to win trips to destinations including Vietnam or Uzbekistan.
