This is a small beach on the southwest of the island. Easy to find if you google it. Beaches like St Brelade's are well developed and attractive to those who like this. But Beauport beach is completely undeveloped and very beautiful: one of the most lovely small beaches I have seen. I had to put a city in, and wrote St Aubin but it's a few miles from this.
Fantastic secluded bay, like something from Pirates of the Caribbean, we spent the morning there, deserted, my wife swam it was beautiful

This was the headquarters of the German Naval Commander of the Channel Islands during WWII. The Signals HQ handled all the important radio signals traffic for the German Forces during the Occupation. The bunker complex was completed in 1944 and housed powerful communication equipment and Enigma enciphering machines. Over half the complex has been restored to its wartime appearance with original fixtures, fittings, objects and equipment.
The German Naval Signal Station is a superbly restored German Naval Command Bunker, with great exhibits with rooms restored as they would have been back in the 1940’s. Well worth spending an hour or two if you are interested in the German Occupation. I have visited several time and will do again the May 2020

The LibertyBus service in Jersey is here to keep you on the move. The network of bus routes provides high frequency of services to the islands main shopping centres, workplaces, beaches and visitor attractions -and our modern bus fleet offers a very comfortable and passenger friendly ride.
We visited Jersey for a weeks holiday and used The Liberty Bus service for the week, what an amazing service this is, £2.00 per trip per person to anywhere on the island, punctual, friendly drivers and great value.

This quaint bridge is worth a look and walk across with spectacular views had from both sides it might be difficult for some one infirm as it is very steep when going on to the bridge from both sides there are some steps from the bridge to the sea which are worth a try

Visited The Sandwizard today and was so pleased I did. What a truly talented gentleman with such a love for his passion of sand sculptures. He spent time telling us about how he makes the sculptures and tales of his competition days - it was a joy to meet him and I encourage everyone to go and visit. I hope one day he achieves his dreams of having three domes of sculptures!

The beautiful and unspoiled island of Sark lies to the southeast of Guernsey, which features the La Seigneurie, an estate dating back to 1675 that was built on the site of a 6th-century monastery of St. Magloire.
The gardens of La Seigneurie are really magnificent and so peaceful. Despite the really hot weather the flowers were in full bloom and looked very fresh and colourful. I am not a gardener but really enjoyed walking along little pathways and smelling the perfumes of all the different varieties of roses and other plants. Afterwards we had some tea and delicious cakes at Hathaway’s café just next door.

An 800 year old castle that boasts incredible views of the whole East coast of Guernsey and across to the other islands of Herm, Sark and Alderney. Steeped in history that includes the English civil war and the German Occupation of the castle and islands during the second world war. There are four museums on military history, the RAF and the story of the castle and a new maritime museum hoping to be unveiled later in 2021. The grounds and gardens benefit from a full-time castle keeper tending the historic gardens and keeping it looking beautiful. The daily noon-day gun firing of a 32 pound cannon by a gunner in traditional 19th century uniform is the highlight of any visit and can be accompanied by a castle tour in the morning, tea in the cafe and relaxing in the sunshine!
Castle cornet has a fascinating history, great for kids for look around and for adults also, Remember to be there fro the noon day gun firing, 3 museums in one, local Militia, castle history, and the 201 squadron, long walk to it though.

Jersey Zoo was founded in 1959 by author and naturalist Gerald Durrell. Its 32 acres of beautifully landscaped park is home to over 100 species of animal, many of which are threatened in the wild. The zoo is the heartbeat of Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, the global charity with a mission to save species from extinction. The zoo's onsite facilities include two cafés, 5-star glamping at Durrell Wildlife Camp, a hostel and the Durrell Conservation Academy.
We had a wonderful time visiting Jersey zoo, the weather was great, such a variety of animals to see and lots to hear and see about Gerald Durrell too, certainly well worth a visit if you are on the island.
