The islands consist of Jersey the largest island, Guernsey the second largest and three much smaller islands Herm, Sark and Alderney. 2 Channel Isles The Island of Jersey Jersey. An island of rediscovery where landscapes are just waiting to be explored. Whether it’s the view from the battlements of a 12th century castle, a beach walk along Jersey’s un-spoilt coastline or taking time to reflect while you watch the sun sink into the sea over St Ouen’s Bay, Jersey is there to be discovered. Jersey War Tunnels is a poignant reminder of the German Occupation of Jersey During World War II. A series of exhibitions reveal details about the resistance, co-operation and eventual liberation. As well as the main tunnel complex, you can enjoy quiet moments in the Garden of Reflection or put your puzzle solving to the test in the Escape Room activity. In the visitor center you can refresh in the café, pick up unique items in the Love-Bird Gifts shop and entertain the kids in the art studio. There are many half day or full day guided tours to see the history of the II world War in Jersey. 3 Channel Isles The Island of Jersey Putting history aside, Jersey offers so many other things to do and see for singles, couples, families and groups and is safe and suitable for all ages. Jersey is packed full of places to explore, from breathtaking beaches to dramatic cliff-top paths, from tranquil country lanes to leafy hidden valleys, from award-winning attractions to awe- inspiring castles, from sophisticated restaurants to stylish shopping. The island is also home to an amazing range of places to stay including family-friendly hotels and self-catering lodges, chic hotels and relaxed guest houses. Add a mild climate, easy travel by air or sea from the UK and great-value offers. For that special moment Alfresco Dining The Jersey Flower Show 4 Channel Isles The Island of Guernsey Enjoy the island’s dramatic coastal views while walking the cliffs, wander across secluded bays, sunbathe on the golden sand, or perhaps learn to surf or go coasteering. In Guernsey’s pretty harbor town, St. Peter Port, there are a wealth of museums and historical attractions, as well as everything from quirky cafes to fine-dining restaurants. Further afield, discover Neolithic burial sites, German fortifications built during the island’s Occupation during the Second World War, as well as the beautiful Little Chapel, painstakingly decorated with bits of broken china and glass. You’ll quickly discover that there’s simply so much to see and do. At the Market Floral display in St Peter Port It’s astonishing to think that people have lived in Guernsey for at least 12,000 years, and some of the rocks that make up the island are up to 2.6 billion years old. With this comes a lot of history and a heritage that sets it apart from the rest of Great Britain. Guernsey takes pride in its beautifully preserved heritage sites and intriguing museums. Visitors love to learn about Guernsey’s past, and leave with a thirst for more knowledge on the island Castle Cornet, Guernsey's ancient royal fortress, has stood guard over the town and harbor of St Peter Port for nearly eight centuries. 5 Channel Isles The Island of Guernsey 3 of the many beaches around Guernsey Cobo Bay Moulin Huet Bay Pembroke Bay 6 Channel Isles The Island of Herm Stay on the Island or take a boat ride from Guernsey Herm is an idyllic retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Just a mile-and-a-half long by half-a-mile wide, with no cars, the island is like nowhere else. Breath-taking stretches of white sandy beaches, award-winning gardens and a beautiful coastline make it impossible not to fall in love with this idyllic little island. Be sure to visit Shell Beach, Belvoir Bay, and one of the island’s three restaurants. Just twenty minutes away from Guernsey by boat, a day-trip will have the same effect as a week’s holiday. It’s like being on your own private island! The White House Hotel – the only hotel on the island 7 Channel Isles The Island of Sark and Little Sark Stay on the Island or take a Ferry for a day or two Take a step back in time to the perfect little world of Sark. Like Herm, Sark is car-free, so on arrival in the harbour hop on the legendary ‘toast rack’ (a makeshift tractor-pulled minibus) to come up harbour hill and then navigate the island either on foot, by bicycle or horse-drawn carriage. The main island is just over two square miles, and must-sees are La Seigneurie Gardens, the Venus and Adonis Pools. 8 Channel Isles The Island of Alderney Alderney, the most northerly of the Bailiwick’s islands and just eight miles from the coast of Normandy, has a distinctly French flavour. St. Anne’s, the island’s town, is only a short walk from Braye Harbour. With its narrow cobbled streets, the town is quaint, friendly and packed with little cafés and shops. Further afield, the island is abundant with wildlife, and is a paradise for nature lovers. The island also has an ancient and varied history which it would be a crime not to explore, and don’t forget the Channel Islands’ only steam train.
