Blo-Karting, St Ouen's Bay, Jersey

The Blo-Kart landsailer is a portable, wind-powered go-kart for hire here all year round. Experienced Blo-Karters can reach speeds of up to 50mph on the five-mile stretch of sand, but all you need to have a go is some warm clothes, nerves of steel and £35 per adult for a two-hour lesson (www.purejersey.com).
