St. Peter Port (Guernsey)

Continued from: Londonderry shore excursions

The town of St. Peter Port is both the capital and the main port for Guernsey in the Channel Islands. During our visit in August, the small harbor and its marinas were filled with pleasure craft, fishing boats, a lifeboat, a seagoing ambulance, and excursion boats.

Several ferry lines provide service to England and France, with other ferries connecting Guernsey to the nearby islands of Jersey, Alderney, Herm, and Sark.

For more information on St. Peter Port's facilities for cruise ships, yachts, and other vessels, see:
