About Seafaris

Jersey Seafaris was established in 2011. It quickly established itself as the largest RIB operator in the Channel Islands. We run regular RIB boat trips, tours and charters around Jersey’s magnificent coastline and offshore islands. We are the number 1 boat tour in Jersey on TripAdvisor!

We also provide Private Charters for a bespoke experience – zip across to France for dinner or enjoy a picnic on a sandbank miles from land, with just your friends and even the odd dolphin for company! Contact Us for more information. We look forward to welcoming you on a Seafari soon!
