About Guernsey

The Bailiwick of Guernsey comprises the second largest of the Channel Islands, Guernsey, along with the sister islands of Alderney, Herm, Jethou, Lihou, Sark and Brecqhou. Guernsey is the best centre from which to visit the other Channel Islands because, in peak season, locals and visitors can take a day trip to all the other islands, incluing Jersey which is a seperate Bailiwick.  Brecqhou and Jethou are private residences and not usually open to the general public.

Guernsey's ten parishes offer the perfect mix of coastline, nine have part of the boundary along the coast, countryside and long winding cliff paths. Guernsey's most spectacular attraction is probably the unspoilt cliff paths that run from Havelet Bay all the way to Pleinmont. Despite being small there are over five hundred kilometres of roads and lanes to explore. It is believed that the island was spilt, geographically, into ten parishes around about the 7th century based around churches.
