Practical Information about Guernsey

It is worth noting that if you are travelling into Guernsey from the UK or Ireland, you will not be requested to produce your passport on arrival onto the island. You can use your currency from the UK during your visit to Guernsey, and goods cost around the same amount on the island as they would in the UK. Budget wise, therefore, it would be prudent to think about how much you would spend on a typical UK holiday. Guernsey does also have its own notes and coins, should you wish to exchange some of your money before your holiday to ensure your cash is accepted everywhere. Weather wise, Guernsey has a very moderate climate and follows the same seasonal patterns as the UK. This means that July and August, as the warm summer months, are the best time to visit, at least if you want sunny weather. Discover more offers to Guernsey : Weekend

If you have the time the combined visit is a good idea. If you only have a few days we recommend Guernsey which is more varied with the inevitable shark and herm. You can easily do a tour of Guernsey in 3 days. Don't miss the west coast with Cobo Bay. To the south there is a superb coastal path, in some places it feels like the West Indies...
