The second largest of the Channel
Islands, Guernsey is located in the
English
Channel a short distance from the Normandy
coast of France
and,
along with several smaller islands, makes up the self-governing States
of Guernsey. It is most closely affiliated with Great Britain
and has
been under its protection since Norman times but, due to its close
proximity to France, the island enjoys a fusion of French and British
culture and history.
Visitors can witness this blend everywhere on the
island but especially at Hauteville
House, where French writer Victor
Hugo spent his 15 years of political exile. History buffs’ cravings can
further be satisfied by the narrow and winding olde-worlde streets of
Guernsey’s chief town, St.
Peter Port, and the historic ruined
fortifications along the coast. Castle
Cornet was built during the 12th
century and houses excellent museums
and gardens,
while a labyrinth of
German-built ramparts portray the Channel Islands' occupation during
WWII. More literal appetites can be sated at one of the many stylish
restaurants
that serve fresh lobster, crabs and scallops at affordable
prices, thanks to the island’s favourable tax laws. And when dining
excesses require relief, beaches
and walks along craggy cliff tops
abound, as do diving,
fishing
and sailing
opportunities from St Peter
Port.
