Pre-season checklist
DO:
1)
Check your engine and mechanical
equipment.
2)
Check all emergency and lifesaving
equipment, from harnesses to VHF. Are the
batteries on your EPIRBs and personal locator
beacons in date? Have your lifejackets and
life rafts been serviced?
3)
7)
Check your freshwater system. If it wasn’t
drained at the end of last season, pipework
might have suffered.
Standing rigging: If it’s more than 10 years old,
your insurance company may not cover it and
it might need to be replaced. Have it surveyed
and be secure in the knowledge that it won’t
let you down.
8)
Replace your anodes, even if they don’t look
worn. Depletion can take place out of sight.
Boats left afloat in a marina can suffer quite
rapid deterioration of metal fittings
and anodes.
Running rigging: Check for wear and chafe,
particularly around wire-to-rope joints and
Talurit splices.
9)
Check the anchor and cable, as these are
often forgotten and sit in a nasty, damp
locker. If you don’t use your anchor often, the
cable could be rusting away. Revitalise your
depth markers, whether that’s repainting
them on to the chain, adding new cable ties,
or refreshing your own method of marking
the cable.
Check your rigging:
4)
Do you have an outboard? If you don’t use it
very often, have it serviced. If you left it down
in the water through the winter it can easily
foul up from the inside. Fuel can deteriorate if
the outboard is not used often.
5)
Check flares and make sure they’re in date.
Think about buying one flare every year. You
will soon have a supply of working flares
without having the expense of having to
replace all your flares at once.
6)
through-hull fittings. If they’re not made of
real bronze, they can degrade. Check for free
movement, and make sure they’re absolutely
secure. It’s worth checking, if you still have
the paperwork, whether they are made of
real bronze or a cheaper material, which
might fail.
Check the condition of seacocks and other
DON’T:
10) Don’t think you’re as prepared as you were
at the end of last season. Things have a habit
of not working. Taking the time to do these
checks now could mean you don’t become a
statistic this season.

Be safe at sea
We’ve put together some useful information
to help you safeguard yourself, your boat, and
any passengers before and during any trip.
Safety equipment While it is certainly possible that
you may never be in need of Safety Equipment, you will
be thankful that you do in an emergency situation.
Essentials Life jackets should not be considered an
optional extra in any situation. However, you should
ensure that it is of the correct size for your body weight,
fitted properly and securely (preferably with a crotch strap
or harness to prevent it riding over your head), and that it
is regularly serviced to ensure it performs as expected.
It is also advised to have a throwable flotation device,
possibly attached to a long length of rope. This will greatly
assist anyone who has fallen overboard. All passengers
and crew should be aware of where the life jackets
are and how to operate them in the event they do not
automatically inflate.
While a mobile phone can be used to contact emergency
services, a VHF radio is a far better device to ensure
prompt assistance. A VHF radio is not as dependent on
additional masts and antennas, and has a much greater
range. It is also much easier to pinpoint the source,
meaning the emergency services will know exactly
where you are. The added benefit is that any calls made
on Channel 16 can also be responded to by nearby
boats that will quite likely be able to assist before the
lifeboat arrives.
A torch along with spare batteries and a fire extinguisher
suitable for your type of boat, should also be considered
essential safety items.
You should carry a detailed chart for the areas you are
travelling in. Even if you do not understand everything
on the chart, being able to work out your position and
surrounding dangers is important.
Spare rope is something that can be useful in any
situation. A couple of decent lengths can act as anything
from additional mooring lines, a tow line, a throwable line
to a man-over-board or repairs to damage.
Advisable It is also advisable to have the following
safety equipment stored on board. This will almost
certainly be useful in aiding a quick and safe resolution to
any dangerous situations.
GPS - this provides a backup for navigation. Be aware
though that it should not replace your charts, but act as
additional confirmation of your location.
Flares - nothing will attract help faster and clearer than a
flare. Depending on how far you intend to travel from land
it is advisable to at least carry hand-held flares and also
parachute flares. They should be stored in a watertight
container and regularly checked that they are not out of
date. Any out of date flares can be disposed of by handing
them over to the police.
Life Raft - in the event of an onboard fire or if taking on
water, you have the assurance that you and your crew will
be safe until assistance arrives.
Grab Bag - it should be your last resort to abandon ship,
06
but if needs be, don’t forget to take your grab bag, full of
essentials to see you out until assistance arrives.
SART - Search and Rescue Transponders are used to
locate a survival craft or distressed vessel by creating a
series of dots on a rescuing ship’s radar display.
EPIRB - Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacons
when manually activated, or automatically activated
upon immersion, send out a distress signal. The 406 MHz
beacon which transmits a digital signal, can be uniquely
identified (via GEOSAR) which provides instantaneous
identification of the registered user and its location.
Batteries - this applies to both handheld devices such as
radios and torches; but also to larger items such as your
bilge pump. A bilge pump is no use without any power,
so consider a dual charging system to provide a backup,
preferably with the batteries in two different locations on
the boat.
Mobile Phone - these are very useful regardless of
situation, but as with the GPS, it should not replace your
VHF radio.
Tools - basic tools to allow simple repairs to an engine.
Spare parts such as fuel filters, hosing and hull-bungs can
prove invaluable.
Boat maintenance A thorough maintenance routine
can prevent many rescue situations by ensuring that
your boat and its equipment can perform to the best
of their ability.
rely on the electrical system, which as a result of salt and
damp is very susceptible to corrosion. This makes the
electrical system a priority of boat maintenance.
All electrical lines and fixings should be installed with the
aim of keeping them as dry as possible. Any connections
should be kept clean and protected with water-repellent,
non-conductive grease or a corrosion inhibitor.
As mentioned, a dual-charging system or a spare battery
kept charged up is also important.
After the electrical system, the motor is the most
important as for many boats it’s the only means of power.
You don’t have to be a mechanic to ensure reliable
operation. Regularly check the condition of hoses for
both fuel and cooling systems as they are particularly
vulnerable to extreme temperature changes throughout
the year and can degrade and crack. A quick visual check
of all the hoses can ensure that they haven’t begun to
leak, or are likely to in the future. As long as an engine
has a consistent supply of air, fuel through its hoses,
a strong electrical supply and suitable cooling it will
continue to run.
Fuel & Oil It goes without saying that ensuring oil levels
are correct will keep the engine working well.
Topping off your fuel tanks before leaving the harbour
is best, however if you can’t do that, ensure you have
enough fuel for the distance you intend to cover with
enough extra to allow for any changes.
The two most important items that can go wrong on a
boat are the engine and the bilge pump. Both quite likely

Code of Practice
We’d like everyone to enjoy using our
marinas and facilities and the following
notes give an overview of our code of
practice to ensure all users are aware of
harbour guidelines.
must give priority to visiting yachtsmen during
exceptionally busy times.
•
Pick up and drop off points
Guernsey Harbours provides areas for local boat owners
to pick up or drop off friends and family members when
the marinas are not tidally accessible.
•
The swan pontoons in the pool area are available
throughout the year and local boat owners may
use the west side of the walk-ashore to drop off
and pick up guests. When space allows, vessels
may be moored for up to one tide free of charge.
Please note that during low Spring tides the area
is very shallow. Please ask the marina staff for any
assistance if necessary.
From time to time, especially during July and
August, capacity may be at its maximum and the
swan pontoons may be unavailable to all nonvisiting boats. The marina staff will advise that they
16
The Cambridge Steps are available during most
states of the tide and provide easy access ashore.
Boats should not be left unattended, it is for the
safe and quick transfer of people and not for any
other use.
Layby areas
•
For those wishing to use local layby areas for more
than one tide, the swan pontoons are available to
local boat owners for a small charge.
•
The local layby pontoon in the pool area is
designed for short stays and can be used by local
boat owners free of charge. A tender is required
to access the shore. Please note the marina
attendants are not licensed to take passengers on
the harbour dories.
Fuel
It is strictly forbidden to refuel in the marinas or anywhere
else in the harbour except at a designated fuelling
berth. Fuel (diesel and petrol) is available from the
Boatworks+ berth at the Castle Emplacement (accessible
approximately half tide up to half tide down dependent
upon draught) and in the QEII Marina.
•
All petrol should be stored in metal containers.
•
Place adequate fire-fighting equipment in position
to deal with engine and cooking appliance fires.
•
The use of barbecues is strictly forbidden in the
marinas and in the pool area.
Tenders
Please do not leave tenders on any steps, gangways or
pontoons as they may seriously impede other users or
emergency access points. In the interest of safety, tenders
should not be used in the marinas unnecessarily.
Moorings and berths
The mooring or berth designated to you and detailed in
your mooring agreement is for your vessel only. Please do
not lease your berth or mooring for another vessel to use
without permission from Guernsey Harbours.
Safety
Swimming and diving is not permitted in any part of the
harbour, including the marinas.
Holding tanks should not be emptied in the marinas or
harbour and where possible please avoid using on-board
toilets when moored in the marinas or pool area.
Water
Water is available on the pontoons but only for the
purpose of washing down boats if no island wide
restrictions are in place. Hosepipes are no longer available
and boat owners are requested to use their own hoses.
Refuse disposal
Waste bins and recycling points are provided near all
marina gangways. DO NOT throw rubbish into the harbour
or leave it on the pontoons: as well as being unpleasant, it
is also an offence.
Please do not use any other mooring or berth not
designated for your vessel, or lay alongside piers, jetties or
ships without prior permission of Guernsey Harbours.

Beaufort Scale
The Beaufort Scale is used throughout the marine world and has developed over many years since it was first devised
by Admiral Francis Beaufort in 1806. It is defined for seamen in terms of sea state with emphasis on the observed
effect of the wind, rather than the actual wind speed. Wave heights in the scale are for conditions in the open sea, not
along the shore.

Speed Limits
Speed limits from four to six knots are in force in St Peter Port and St Sampson’s harbours.
A speed limit of six knots is in force in most of the bays around the coast of Guernsey and in
the approaches to Herm and Jethou. There is also a speed limit of six knots off most of the
bathing beaches in Herm and at Rosaire anchorage.
Live round firing
All speedboats must be registered
with Guernsey Harbours and must
display registration numbers at the
stern of the boat.
All speedboats must have third
party insurance cover of not less
than £1,000,000.
It is an offence to exceed a speed of
six knots within the restricted areas
as indicated on the plan except
where a permit has been issued.
20
Keep clear of the Fort Le Plomb firing range when the red
flags are flying. On the day of firing, navigational warnings
are broadcast by Guernsey Coastguard on Channel 20.
Dates of live round firing and other navigational warnings
can be found online at www.guernseyharbours.gov.gg
The Humps and Brehon Tower
Boat owners are requested not to land on the Humps and
to avoid the immediate vicinity between the 1st January
and 31st July inclusive. These restrictions are necessary to
protect the important breeding seabird colonies on these
islets, which lie to the north-west of Herm.
Boat owners, including kayaks etc, are also asked not to
land at Brehon Tower at any time of the year. The interior
of the tower is in an extremely dangerous condition and
for safety reasons the public are advised to stay clear of
this area.
Water-skiing
Permits are issued by Guernsey Harbours for waterskiing. The boat must have adequate insurance cover
and at least two people are in the boat while towing a
water-skier in order to ensure that a proper lookout is
maintained at all times.
The bays concerned are also popular areas for swimmers
and every care should be taken to avoid accidents. Permit
holders should inspect the area before commencing
water-skiing and should note the presence of any
swimmers, particularly those who are not close inshore.
Areas of coastal restricted zones in which the speed limit
may be exceeded for the purpose of water-skiing, subject
to permission from Guernsey Harbours are:
Havelet Bay. So much of the coastal restricted zone
as lies east of a line joining Oyster Rock and Moulinet
Beacon and south of a line from Horseshoe Pool to
Moulinet Beacon.
Soldier’s Bay (Petit Fort).
Moulin Huet. Much of the coastal restricted zone as lies
south of a line joining the Cannon Rock, the Dog and Lion
Rocks and the rocks south of Bon Port.
La Bette. Much of the coastal restricted zone as lies in
and south-west of La Bette Bay.
Shell Beach - Herm. Much of the coastal restricted
zone as lies to the north of a line bearing 270º (T) from the
northernmost part of North Jacquets Rock to Shell Beach,
to include Mouissoniere Bay.
PLEASE FIND BELOW A MAP SHOWING RESTRICTED ZONES AROUND HERM.
The shaded areas are those in which the speed limit is restricted to a maximum of six knots.

VHF Radios
Guernsey Coastguard maintains a 24/7 all year round
listening watch on VHF channels 16 and 20. Other
channels are available but in the first instance for routine
traffic, the main working channel is VHF Channel 20.
Port Control (located at the pierheads) also operates
24/7 on VHF Channel 12. It is primarily for commercial
traffic requesting permission to enter and leave the ports
of both St Peter Port and St Sampson and for any vessel
over 15 metres in length.
Channel 12: This is used for commercial movements
within the harbour and should be monitored when
entering and exiting the harbour. However, if you wish to
make contact with Guernsey Coastguard it should be on
Channel 20, and not Channel 12.
Channel 16: This channel should be used for emergency
purposes only. Using this channel allows emergency
services to pinpoint your location by communicating with
other radio stations.
Channel 20: This is the normal working channel
of Guernsey Coastguard and should be used to
communicate all arrival and departure messages. It is
preferable to mention your intentions, the number of
people aboard and when you expect to return.

equipment requires a Ship Radio Licence. Ofcom issue
licences for free and are valid for life:
MAYDAY call by voice
A MAYDAY call by voice should be made on Channel 16.
A distress call has priority over all other transmissions. If
you hear a MAYDAY call cease all transmissions and listen
carefully noting down any detail.
Before making the MAYDAY call check that the radio is
ON and that HIGH POWER (25 watts) and Channel 16 are
selected. Press and hold down the transmit button and
say slowly and clearly:
http://licensing.ofcom.org.uk/radiocommunicationlicences/ships-radio/
Any person in charge of a radio set also requires a
Certificate of Competence and Authority to Operate. This
will usually be the Short Range Certificate incorporating
VHF DSC procedures. Certification can be acquired by
attending a RYA day course arranged by Guernsey College
of Further Education or Fastcraft Sea School.

The Guernsey Sailing Trust
The Guernsey Offshore Rowing Club is a vibrant club
that can trace its history back to 1894. GRC members
regularly take part in offshore and coastal regatta’s held at
nearby French clubs as well as local races throughout the
summer, while the challenging Sure ‘Herm Rocks’ Rowing
Regatta held in Guernsey over three days in the summer,
is one of the largest rowing events in the Channel Islands.
Participants from Holland, Belgium, France, the UK and
near neighbours, Jersey, regularly take part, enjoying a
weekend of serious racing of 6km on the Friday, 6km on
the Saturday and 11km on the Sunday plus the usual GRC
social activities.
The Trust was established in 1988 to enable local
children from all walks of life to experience and enjoy
the fun and challenges involved with sailing, and to make
the sport accessible to all.
Over the years the Trust, with constantly improving
facilities and resources, has been able to expand
the training it provides to cover all aspects of sailing,
seamanship and navigation.
We are a charitable Trust that relies on donations and
sponsorship from our kind supporters to enable us to
provide the school children of the Bailiwick access to
sailing free of charge during term time.
As a Royal Yachting Association Recognised Training
Centre we can offer dinghy sailing, windsurfing and
powerboat courses for adults and children alike. With
a fleet of 33 dinghies, 12 windsurfers and 4 powerboats

“ Welcome to Guernsey ”
L - Fermain Bay
R - Town Church, Victoria Marina
Guernsey may geographically be closer to France but it
remains loyal to the British crown, and has done since
Norman times. With evidence dating from the Neolithic
period, the island has been pivotal in battles between
the UK and France as well as being an important port
for international imports into the UK. Today the island is
independent and self-governing.
Guernsey is part of the southernmost group of islands
that make up the British Isles. They sit in the Bay of St
Malo, less than 30 miles from the French coast.
The Channel Islands enjoy more sunshine hours each year
than the UK. As a result, a variety of plants and flowers
thrive in our parks and gardens that may not survive the
harsh winters in Britain.
With its milder climate, islanders make the most of the
outdoors and, with beautiful beaches and cliff paths,
island-hopping to its neighbouring islands and eating ‘al
fresco’ during the summer months.
Guernsey’s independent status means it has been able
to foster a favourable tax climate. This has led to many
offshore banks, fund managers and insurance companies
establishing offices here. While the traditional industries
of flower growing, fishing and dairy farming have largely
been overtaken by the finance industry, each still plays an
important part, contributing both to the varied economy
and to the island’s character.

Port Control
Customs and immigration
Port entry and exit
Immediately upon arrival, before any crew member goes
ashore, masters of all vessels arriving in Guernsey must
complete the Customs and Immigration declaration given
to them by the marina attendants. Completed forms
must be placed in one of the yellow Customs boxes or
returned to a duty Customs official afloat. In addition,
vessels arriving from any port outside the Bailiwick of
Guernsey must display a Q flag on entry. All persons on
board vessels arriving from places other than the United
Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey or
the other islands of the Bailiwick must be in possession of
a valid travel document.
Commercial vessels are severely constrained whilst
manoeuvring within the harbour and therefore smaller
craft are requested to keep well clear. A red light at the
pier head, one on the south end of the New Jetty and
one on the Inter-island Quay indicate that large vessels
are under way and prohibit entry and exit of others
except small boats of 15m or less under power, which
may proceed keeping well clear. It is also good practice
to listen out on the VHF Channel 12 for commercial traffic
movement. The marinas are illustrated on the map on
page 36.
Rabies
Arrival
All visiting yachtsmen are met on arrival by a member
of the marina staff who will provide assistance and a
suitable berth for your vessel. All visiting vessels must
clear inwards at the main harbour of St Peter Port,
regardless of which marina they moor in. Mooring in the
QEII Marina is by prior arrangement only.
The marina staff are there to ensure the safety of all our
customers and they will recommend a berth suitable for
your boat. Please advise the staff how long you intend
to stay when you arrive. We can take payment alongside
and accept cash, debit and credit cards (small charge for
credit card payments).
ALL VESSELS ARRIVING IN THE HARBOUR WITH ANIMALS
ON BOARD WILL BE SUBJECT TO CONTROLLED MOORING.
The landing of animals from vessels arriving in Guernsey
directly or indirectly from places other than the United
Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey
or the other islands of the Bailiwick of Guernsey is strictly
prohibited. Any animal on board any such vessel in the
harbour in the Bailiwick or at anchor or moored in the
territorial waters adjacent thereto, must remain securely
confined within an enclosed part of the vessel from
which it cannot escape. Any such animal found ashore
or not confined on the vessel will be detained and may
be subject to six months’ quarantine or destroyed and
the master of the vessel prosecuted. Unless express

the Victoria Marina which offers non-tidally restricted
berths offering our visiting yachtsmen greater flexibility.
Your mooring is designated for your vessel only; prior
permission of Guernsey Harbours must be obtained to
lay alongside piers, jetties or ships. Please do not leave
your vessel unattended for more than 24 hours except by
prior arrangement with the marina office. Visiting yachts
intending to stay longer than 14 days should also obtain
prior permission.
Fuel
It is strictly forbidden to refuel in the marinas or anywhere
else in the harbour except at a designated fuelling
berth. Fuel (diesel and petrol) is available from the
Boatworks+ berth at the Castle Emplacement (accessible
approximately half tide up to half tide down dependent
upon draught).
permission is granted by a Customs officer, no vessel with
an animal on board may moor alongside a pontoon or
quay. Under no circumstances will any vessel, irrespective
of its previous port of call, be permitted to enter the
marinas with any animal aboard.
•
All petrol should be stored in metal containers.
•
Place adequate fire-fighting equipment in position
to deal with engine and cooking appliance fires.
•
The use of barbecues is strictly forbidden in the
marinas and in the pool area.
Tenders
Please do not leave tenders on any steps, gangways or
pontoons as they may seriously impede other users or
emergency access points. In the interest of safety, tenders
should not be used in the marinas unnecessarily.
Speed limits
Speed limits from four to six knots are in force in St
Peter Port Harbour, as shown on the plan of the pool and
marinas on page 36. A speed limit of six knots is in force
in most of the bays around the coast of Guernsey and in
the approaches to Herm and Jethou. There is also a speed
limit of six knots off most of the bathing beaches in Herm
and at Rosaire anchorage.
Safety
Moorings for visiting yachts
Water
A marina attendant in a dory will guide you to your berth
or the holding pontoon just outside the entrance, which
provides plenty of space for vessels awaiting the tide.
Water is available on the pontoons but only for the
purpose of washing down boats if no island wide
restrictions are in place. Hosepipes are no longer
available and visiting yachtsmen are requested to
use their own hoses.
Moorings alongside pontoons are available in the Victoria
Marina for boats up to a maximum of 42ft (12.8m) LOA
and a maximum draught of 6ft (1.8m). The sill height is
4.2m above chart datum, with access approximately 2.5
hours either side of high water. Entry is controlled by the
marina attendants. Control lights are positioned on both
pier heads at the entrance to the marina.
Guernsey Marinas now has a walk-ashore facility outside
Swimming and diving is not permitted in any part of the
harbour, including the marinas.
Holding tanks should not be emptied in the marinas or
harbour and where possible please avoid using on-board
toilets when moored in the marinas or pool area.
Refuse disposal
Waste bins and recycling points are provided near all
marina gangways. DO NOT throw rubbish into the harbour
or leave it on the pontoons: as well as being unpleasant, it
is also an offence.

St Peter Port
With its cobbled streets and picturesque
seafront marina, it is easy to see why St
Peter Port is considered one of Europe’s
prettiest harbour towns. Guernsey’s capital
has been a busy port since Roman times.
Castle Cornet has stood guard over the town for
800 years. Once cut off by the tide, it now provides a
spectacular backdrop to the town as well as staging
theatre productions and musical events. St Peter Port’s
centrepiece is its beautiful church, which is believed to
be the closest church to a pub in the British Isles. If you
want to learn more about the island’s history, head to the
Guernsey Tapestry at the Gallery in St James Concert Hall,
wander through the beautiful Candie Gardens or explore
Hauteville House, home to French writer Victor Hugo. If
you would rather just take it easy, explore the boutique
shopping, then sit back and relax with a coffee or bite to
eat and watch the world go by.
The Bailiwick of Guernsey really does have something for
everyone when it comes to food and drink. Islanders are
passionate about their food and it’s not hard to see why
- rich in natural ingredients from both the sea and land,
Guernsey, and its food, has a unique flavour.
Whether its fish and chips watching the sunset over the
west coast, alfresco dining at a Parisienne-style café, a
cosy pub lunch or afternoon tea, a beach kiosk snack or
fine dining, Guernsey is ready to serve when it comes to
eating out. The capital St Peter Port has a huge choice of
restaurants with an international flavour and lively pubs
and bars to soak up the atmosphere.
Throughout the year, the calendar is packed full of
food events and food festivals, including the legendary
Tennerfest in autumn. The good food doesn’t just stop in

Guernsey though, a short trip to one of our sister
islands of Herm, Sark and Alderney will be sure to
delight the senses.
From farmer’s markets to summer shows, food
festivals and town carnivals, Guernsey is ready to
entertain you. Outdoor concerts and productions utilise
the very best locations with both Candie Gardens and
Castle Cornet offering a unique atmosphere and breathtaking backdrops.
Floral Guernsey Festival Weeks and Walking Weeks in
both spring and autumn offer visitors a change to explore
the island on foot with the help of a guide. There are
weekly markets and rural rambles, summer shows and
food festivals, but for a real Guernsey day out visit on 9
May and experience Liberation Day. Every year on 9 May,
the Island celebrates its freedom on Liberation Day and
in 2015 it commemorates the 70th anniversary with a
programme of events across the island.
The Islands’ unique geographical position sets the scene
for a fascinating heritage. With evidence dating from
Neolithic times, the island has been pivotal in battles
between the UK and France as well as being an important
port for international imports into the UK.
Guernsey has a story to tell around every corner, down
each alley and tucked away in its forts and castles, ruins
and ancient tombs. Much of the island’s history is told in
our museums and there are information boards at many
heritage sites throughout the island.
Guernsey culture has been moulded and carved out over
the centuries and adapted to fit in with modern life. Visible
from the coastline of Europe, its Anglo-French influences
are still evident from local surnames to road names and
even our local language, D’Gernesiais.

Guernsey is the perfect launch pad to

Sark
Traffic-free, with stunning coastal views and a
picturesque rural interior, the 600 residents of Sark get
about by bicycle or horse and carriage, which has a
dramatic effect on the pace of life.
A holiday on Sark really is like stepping back in time. But,
while it has retained a more sedate feel, many of the
island’s hotels have introduced a more modern luxurious
feel. The island has become increasingly self-sufficient
and Sark residents produce a whole host of local
produce. This is not limited to the freshest vegetables
and fruits, the island has its own bakery and, among
other goods, produces its own milk and butter and
51
luxury chocolate. Islanders also rear beef and pork which
is highly sought after because of its fabulous taste. Of
course, the island is also famous for its amazing seafood,
with juicy hand-dived scallops and lobsters caught and
served daily during peak season.
Sark is split into two islands - the main island, which is
just over two square miles, and Little Sark to the south,
which is accessed by Le Coupee. Refuelling and water
services are available and the island shops will deliver any
groceries you purchase down to your boat.

Tavern, a courtyard lunch at the Ship Inn or, for more

in its rooms. The beach cafes are also open in the summer
months for snacks and sandwiches.

Alderney
The most northerly of the Bailiwick islands, Alderney is a
nature lover’s paradise. At three miles long by one and a
half miles wide, it is the closest to France of all the islands
and has a permanent community of approximately 2,400.
Herm Island is a haven of calm in an increasingly frenetic
world. With its award-winning gardens and breath-taking
stretches of white sandy beaches, it’s easy to see why
it is love at first sight for many visitors to this small but
perfectly formed island.
This tranquil beach paradise is within easy reach of
Guernsey and is a favourite with both locals and visitors,
especially throughout the summer season. Car-free Herm
is just a mile and a half long and half a mile wide and
the coastline offers unspoilt beaches and spectacular
views from the southern cliff paths lined with wild flower
hedgerows. The east coast beaches of Shell and Belvoir
are where childhood memories are made. The soft white
sand and clean blue water are perfect for play and
swimming but it’s best to tentatively dip your toe in, rather
The island is small, relaxed and friendly and has its
own distinct identity. Car passengers do not have to
legally wear a seatbelt and there is a box of half-finished
knitting in a box at the airport in case you are ever
delayed by bad weather. Alderney holidays allow you to
discover an island steeped in ancient and varied history,
a huge variety of flora and fauna, beautiful beaches and
an enviable lifestyle. It is a paradise for nature lovers
with a combination of beautiful landscapes and

The cobbled high street of St Anne has quirky gift and
antique shops as well as a post office, bank, hotels and

Romans to the German Occupation of the early part of
the 1940s.

Pour nos visiteurs plaisanciers français
“ Bienvenue à Guernesey! ”
L - Castle Cornet
R - Bordeaux Harbour
Guernesey peut être géographiquement proche de la
France, mais reste fidèle à la couronne britannique, et
cela depuis l’époque normande. Avec des témoignages
datant de la période néolithique, l’île a joué un rôle clé
dans les batailles entre le Royaume-Uni et la France ainsi
comme étant un port important pour les importations
internationales dans le Royaume-Uni. Aujourd’hui, l’île est
indépendante et autonome.
Guernesey fait partie du groupe les plus au sud des îles
qui composent les îles britanniques. elles sont situées
dans la baie de St Malo, à moins de 30 miles de la côte
française.
Les îles anglo-normandes profitent de plus d’heures
d’ensoleillement chaque année que le Royaume-Uni. En
conséquence, une variété de plantes et de fleurs quis
s’épanouissent dans nos parcs et jardins ne peuvent pas
survivre aux hivers rigoureux en Grande-Bretagne.
Le climat doux permet aux insulaires de frofiter plus de
l’extérieur, avec de belles plages et chemins de falaise,
avec les îles voisines, ils vont d’île en île et mangent «al
fresco» pendant les mois d’été.
Le statut indépendant de Guernesey singnifie, qu’il a été
en mesure de favoriser un climat fiscal favorable. Cela a
conduit à de nombreuses banques offshore, gestionnaires
de fonds et des compagnies d’assurance établissant
des bureaux ici. Alors que les industries traditionnelles
de la floriculture, la pêche et l’élevage laitier ont été
largement dépassées par l’industrie de la finance, chacun
joue encore un rôle important, contribuant à la fois à
l’économie variée et au caractère de l’île.
Are you all at sea?

in the right direction.

St Peter Port
Avec ses rues pavées et l’esplanade
pittoresque du port de plaisance, il est facile
de voir pourquoi St Peter Port est considérée
comme l’une plus jolies villes portuaires
d’Europe. La capitale de Guernesey a été un
port très actif depuis l’époque romaine.
Castle Cornet a monté la garde sur la ville depuis 800 ans.
N’étant plus coupé par la marée, il offre désormais un
cadre spectaculaire de la ville ainsi que des productions
de mis en scène de théâtre et des événements musicaux.
La pièce maîtresse de St Peter Port est sa belle église,
qui est censée être l’église la plus proche d’un pub de
toutes les îles britanniques. Si vous voulez en savoir plus
sur l’histoire de l’île, visitez la tapisserie de Guernesey à la
Galerie de la salle de concert St James, se promener dans
les magnifiques jardins de Candie ou explorer Hauteville
House, la maison à l’écrivain français Victor Hugo. Si
vous préférez prenez le temps d’explorer les boutiques
shopping, puis asseyez-vous et détendez-vous avec un
café ou quelque chose à manger et regarder le monde
passer.
Le bailliage de Guernesey a vraiment quelque chose pour
tout le monde quand il s’agit de nourriture et de boisson.
Les Islanders sont passionnés par leur nourriture et ce
n’est pas difficile de voir pourquoi - riche en ingrédients
naturels à la fois de la mer et de la terre, à Guernesey, et
sa nourriture, a une saveur unique.
Que ce soit le fish and chips en regardant le coucher de
soleil sur la côte ouest, les repas al fresco dans un café
Parisienne de style, un déjeuner de pub ou un thé cosy, un
snack de plage de kiosque ou la gastronomie, Guernesey
est prête à servir quand il s’agit de manger à l’extérieur.
La capitale St Peter Port a un grand choix de restaurants
avec une saveur internationale et des bars animés pour
s’imprégner de l’atmosphère.
Tout au long de l’année, le calendrier est rempli
60
d’événements alimentaires et festivals alimentaires, y
compris le légendaire Tennerfest en l’automne. La bonne
nourriture ne s’arrête pas à Guernesey cependant, un
court voyage dans l’une de nos îles sœurs de Herm, Sercq
et Aurigny ne manquera pas de ravir les sens.
Des marchés de producteurs local au spectacles d’été,
festivals et carnavals alimentaires de la ville, Guernesey
est prêt à vous divertir. Concerts et des productions
en plein air utilisent les meilleurs endroits à la fois
avec Candie Gardens et le château Cornet offrant une
atmosphère unique et des décors à couper le souffle.
Semaines du festival Floral de Guernesey et les deux
semaines de marche au printemps et en automne offrent
aux visiteurs une autre façon d’ explorer l’île à pied avec
l’aide d’un guide. Il y a des marches hebdomadaires et
des randonnées rurales, spectacles et festivals d’été de
nourriture, mais pour une vraie journée venez le 9 mai à
Guernesey et ayez l’expérience du Jour de la Libération.
Chaque année, le 9 mai, l’île célèbre sa liberté le jour de
la Libération et en 2015 il commémore le 70e anniversaire
avec un programme d’événements à travers l’île.
La position géographique exceptionnelle des îles met en
scène un patrimoine fascinant. Avec des preuves datant
du néolithique, l’île a joué un rôle clé dans les batailles
entre le Royaume-Uni et la France ainsi comme étant un
port important pour les importations internationales dans
le Royaume-Uni.
Guernesey a une histoire à raconter autour de chaque
coin, en bas de chaque ruelle et niché dans ses forts
et châteaux, ruines et tombes anciennes. Une grande
partie de l’histoire de l’île est dit dans nos musées et il
y a des panneaux d’information à de nombreux sites du
patrimoine à travers l’île.
La culture de Guernesey a été moulé et taillé au fil des
siècles et adaptée pour s’adapter à la vie moderne.
Visible de la côte de l’Europe, ses influences anglofrançaise sont encore visibles des noms locaux à des
noms de route et même notre langue locale, D’Gernesiais.

Herm
Herm Island est un havre de paix dans un monde de
plus en plus frénétique. Avec ses jardins primés et où
s’étendent à couper le souffle les plages de sable blanc,
il est facile de comprendre pourquoi à première vue de
nombreux visiteurs tombent amoureux de cette petite île
à formes parfaite.
Ce paradis de plages tranquilles facile d’accès par
les Guernesais et les tous les touristes est un endroit
privilègié, en particulier pendant la saison d’été. Herm
sans voiture est juste un mile et demi de long et un
demi-mile de large et la côte offre des plages immaculées
et des vues spectaculaires depuis les falaises du sud
chemins bordés de haies de fleurs sauvages. Les plages
de la côte Est de Shell et de Belvoir sont où les souvenirs
d’enfance se font. Le sable blanc et l’eau bleue propre
sont parfaits pour le jeu et la natation, mais il est
préférable de tremper un orteil pour tester la température
de l’eau, plutôt que de plonger - les eaux peuvent être
clair, mais sont aussi froide. Prenez un verre ou un repas
