VisitGuernsey: Welcome To Guernsey

- Nestling snugly in the bay of St Malo and 70 miles from mainland Britain, the Channel Island of Guernsey is a heady mix of French and British cultures. This collision of lifestyles has created a unique environment, where familiarity is tempered by the unexpected, but where you'll always feel welcome. It's a very special place, one that leaves a lasting impression on all who visit.
Here you'll discover a community that looks to the future for inspiration, but where traditional values still hold sway; where the influence of the Continent is keenly felt, but not to the extent that it dents an unwavering loyalty to the British Crown; and where the dynamism of the global finance industry sits easily alongside centuries old traditions.
Of course for many people, it's the scenery that makes Guernsey so special. And it's easy to see why. Our cliffs, coves and commons provide a real treat for walkers and the abundance and variety of our floral heritage will inspire you. Plus there are the sister islands of Herm, Sark and Alderney to explore.
Where there could only be the sea, lies this wonderful place, a haven of flowers on the sea, as my fellow countryman Victor Hugo put it as early as 1855!
Guernsey is a phenomenal Island, life style is is really awesome there and people are very kind and helpful. Everything about it is great.
Just returned after a short visit Best place in the World we have ever visited!!!MAGICAL indeed.
i was in Guernsey when i was 16 for 2 months lovely place very nice ppl.
i have just come to know about Guernsey on 14 july 2019. it looks beautiful. i am in love with country. looks quite beautiful and peaceful.
Guernsey is a beautiful little island with a rich history. I came all the way from Nassau, Bahamas to visit a friend who lives there and I had a great time. I hope to come back someday and see more of it. I stayed in St. Peter Port.
What Guernsey doesn't offer isn't worth offering. Sarnia, dear homeland, gem of the sea
Gretings from Turkey :)
Have been in Guernsey. I love the place, it's just wonderfull. I have some Relatives living there. I'll visit Guernsey soon, I Promise!
I'd love to visit. It looks wonderful!
I love Guernsey even i do live here it is so safe and a massive town it is so fun.
What an amazingly beautiful place
Nice place
My family are originally from Guernsey and Canada. I would love to visit them both some day. :)
Not just a summer destination. We went a couple of weeks ago by ferry - same time as St Jude hit. That was fun. Got it on video too.
So happy to live here.
Wow, what a beautiful place! I hope to go there one day!
You can see dolphins as well in Guernsey and I live in Guernsey and I love it!
I'm curious if Guernsey is awash with tourists, or is there a more laid back portion/island that offers a more "homey" feel? I want to visit, but being from Boston/USA, there are MANY areas that are overly touristy here, so I'm looking to immerse myself with locals & culture in a slower, friendlier way. I appreciate any feedback/suggestions.
@@mikes3827 you'll find a nice beach in the morning all for yourself on a weekday !
I visit Guernsey every weekend when I hit the town
I was there. The most beautiful treasure.
WoW! it looks awsome. in may i'm coming here for one year as an au pair. can't wait! :)
I know about it being the last place the Germans surrendered. We loved the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society movie.
If you want to go to Paradise, go to St Peter,... In Guernsey.!!
I've been in Guernsey three times so far, and I must say, I've never been in a more beautiful place, I simply love it there :) It feels so right to be there, for some reason.
I used to live in Guernsey and I must say that what I love about the island is that it is very user friendly for its inhabitants: systems work, it's easy to get things done, and officials are generally on your side. Great place!
You've got to be joking! Start by reading the Wales Audit Office report that declared Guernsey's Government unfit for purpose on all counts. I grew up in Guernsey and hated it. I still hate it.
Im half guernsey and i have to say i love it :)
I wish to visit Guernsey 🇬🇬 💙💙💙💙💙😭😭
Hi! Thanks for your comment, we are very happy to hear your thoughts on the Island! Please contact us on the enquiry line which can be found on the VisitGuernsey website and we can respond to your enquiry. Have a good day!
Guernsey in mono :) brilliant.
I would like to see Guernsey Tourism advertise more that Guernsey is the best place to ALL of the Channel Islands. If you spent a week in Jersey you wouldn't be able to see every Channel Island. But from Guernsey you can take day trips to Jersey, Sark, Herm, and even Alderney. Jersey's always blabbing on that they're warmer (allegedly) why do we not highlight our better position for a real Channel Island holiday and advertise it aggressively like Jersey does?
Leave those Jersey crapauds where they belong with all there noise , and live a calm and peacefull donkey life for another 100 years , :-) i've been some years living and working on the island and OMG I LOVE the place ! got some family still there living my dream on the coastside in a nice and lovely cottage , Gunersey must be one of the most beautiful and best creations of God ..
Did 2 years working in Guernsey in 1979 working in the hotels as a 16 yr old loved every minute of it 😃😃😃 40 years ago now met some great people (locals) sadly never been back due to other interests and work. I worked mainly at the captain cook hotel but also at the Pandora. They were just building the Marton up the road when I was there. But it's sad to here poor reviews on the cook and Marton as it was well run the (cook) back then shame. Would love to know where all the people I worked with are now 40 yrs on. But thanks for the video its brought back very happy memories 👍👍👍
A couple of weeks ago, I came across a job posting online for Guernsey. I honestly have never heard of this place in my entire life but for some reason, I felt compelled to look it up. The first photo I saw on google gave me a weird sort of feeling, like I was meant to be here. But being someone from the Middle East, I'm afraid to pursue this inexplicable pull because I fear that the people from this island might not be friendly to non-Caucasians.
Ren RN It all depends on your integration and following their ways.
Don’t worry, my mother is an immigrant and there is a whole Asian community over here that supports her. I’m sure you will fit in. We are overall, very kind and accepting people :)
Ночной Позор what do you mean “following their ways” we don’t care about that stuff, people have they’re own culture and traditions, they don’t need to absorb Guernsey culture!
We are friendly to all people in on this island everyone I know would do something for other people before themselves.
Oh Sarnia Cherie!
as a foreign deejay I played this song 20 years ago in a private club at the millenium , spot on the clock ! ...2000 ....... with tears in me eyes , and I wasn't alone ........th-cam.com/video/j9Yi-aFPres/w-d-xo.html
La Gran'mere du Chimquiere!
I'll be there soon for a long time (I hope)!
Visited Jersey a few years ago and loved it. Not happy about it's tax haven status as I have no time for the rich who protect their wealth by hiding it and do not pay taxes in the UK. As a visitor anywhere I go I can't change the systems and there are places I want to see, have and will . I'm looking forward to Guernsey although I can't find much on You Tube about it or much info from their tourist board. I can find more on line about Albania than Guernsey !!! My trip is a short one and includes Herm and Sark. it will be a bit of a mystery as there is so little information. The tourist board really needs to get their act together. Jersey info was excellent.
Lizzie W so I fully understand your concerns about our Tax, however I would put the following argument forward. Guernsey is neither a part of the UK or the EU. We have a very stable economy with little to no problems when it comes to social and economic issues. As a self governing Island, shouldn’t it be our choice how we spend, use and distribute finance? We don’t pay tax on Guernsey because we don’t need to. And it works for us. Also it should be remembered that the benefits one would receive as a resident of somewhere like the UK or EU are not available to local islanders, so it’s not as if we are trying to leach off the tax payer without contributing ourselves.
I’m here jun 2019
never heard of guernsey until w2s
me too
***** oh
+casey Casey No he's not. He's from this Guernsey because I went to the same school as him.
+Seven Hells Ned and we should believe you?
You can if you want to. I don't care either way. I barely knew him, he was just in the year below me at Sixth Form before he dropped out to pursue TH-cam. I just wanted to correct someone in the comments of a video about where I grew up. Also he obviously isn't American. He's got a British accent. You don't have to believe me, it's not that important.
W2S introduces Guernsey to me, you guys should consider asking him to make a video for Guernsey hahaha.
Though Jersey is a remarkable place where there could be nothing except Water, it remains somewhat hectic...
Guernsey has it all, quietness, island feeling, beautiful maritime landscapes, very friendly people, and a very rich heritage.
the only fact that you can see other islands from the main island is something unique....
And well, what about lobsters,... Either in sandwich or as a "homard thermidor"
look beautiful
@Martyyka Me and my family will be over here, later in the summer.It looks great, and i cant wait to see where my grandfather was born, in st. peter port.
Not a lot of people live on guernsey and not a lot of people know about it, I live on guernsey. It's pretty cool
Un comentario en español, saludos desde México :D Vine por La Sociedad Literaria y del Pastel de Cáscara de Papa de Guernsey
Welcome to Guernsey, island of coins

Hugo

+Nouettes Forest Hello....what is the best month to visit their on holiday? thanks!!
Summer so
warm
Don't go on condors libertarian it is sucher bad bout
thanks!!!
Pour admirer cette île vraiment très attrayante , il faut faire la traversée en bateau , surfer sur les flots et la mouvance des eaux ... Mieux vaut prendre l'aviation pour les marins non aguerris à savoir naviguer !
mj robins Is that Patois?
@SubZero1703 - I'm surprised at you J, it's a great Island! You should know :-) Nice cars there too ;-P
Guernsey is unique. That's why I chose this name as a pseudo.
So thats why W2S names his team Alderney FC
He used to live in Alderney
Thanks for posting this video - I live here in Guernsey and it’s a truly beautiful island with stunning beaches & coastal views, such a great place to live 🏝
can somebody guide me how to visit this country
What currency do they use there?
pounds
Guernsey had own currency at one time, pound notes and coin!
We use pounds and British currency, but Guernsey has its own notes aswell. Guernsey currency cannot be redeemed in the uk. However you can use uk currency in Guernsey. Hope this helps
Like If you got here from w2s
Click this if they lost items and broke others when checking your bags! Terrible, rude people.
Who is W2S? A pro l33t gamer?
Really? Why?
like if youre because of w2s!
Yeah
Abi vize çok zor ya
Guernsey is better then Jersey!
GuernseyPandaSociety Some creepy history in Jersey , the residential schools and the pedo and Satanic statues, Toads!
Yes Guernsey is a lot better than Jersey crapauds I was married to a Jersey man and the only thing we argued about was which island was best eh ?
not really what he/she was saying
not worth visiting, overpriced, and nothing there
+Jay L really? it looks so nice
agreed
Yeah there is w2s
Not true
As a Guernseyman, I agree with you totally. The place is overrun with overpaid arrogant bankers!
