We docked at sea and caught a ship's tender to the harbour. A 20 minute walk under sunny skies brought us to Castle Cornet, an imposing fort built in the 14th century. There were a number of different museums to visit, and we were in the right spot at the right time to see and hear the noonday cannon firing. The museums were great and we spent a few hours there, and the views were fabulous over the harbour and along the coast.
Back in town we met a couple from the ship who told us we could get a bus and go around the island in about 1.5 hours, so we decided to see the whole island instead of just St. Peter's Port. The ride was very good and there are some beautiful places to explore on another visit. Before we caught a tender back to the ship we tried a Guernsey ice cream, which was delicious.
