Guernsey is one of the loveliest islands we have ever visited. You can see the Channel from nearly every point on the island and ships are everywhere. Ships have played an important part in the history of Guernsey. The waters off St. Peter Port contain more ship wrecks than any other place in the world. There is even a wreck of an ancient Roman ship. They have the highest and lowest tides we have ever seen.
We thoroughly enjoyed watching the ships from our balcony at the Le Fregate. (My original audio for this slideshow was muted by You Tube and I had to do an audio swap; so just hum Otis Redding's Sitting By The Dock On The Bay" as you watch it.)
