1 St Peter Port
Considered one of Europe’s prettiest harbour
towns, the parish is colloquially known to
islanders as simply “town”. As the island’s
capital, it is a thriving parish full of topquality
restaurants, pedestrianised shopping
streets and leading names in finance,
insurance and law.

3 Castel
Located on the West coast of the island, this
family-friendly parish hosts several popular
community events each year, such as La
Viaër Marchi and the North Show. With the
finest sandy beaches on the island, watching
the sunset with fish and chips at Cobo is
definitely recommended!
4 Vale
The second largest parish in size, winding
green lanes mixed with quaint fishing
harbours surround the extensive common
land at L’Ancresse Common. There is an 18-
hole links golf course which is home to two
of the island’s golf clubs.
5 St Pierre du Bois
Translated in English as “St Peter in the
Wood”, the parish is very rural and made up
of mainly countryside with a small village in
the centre. Located on the South-West coast,
it has two coastlines – sandy beaches on the
West coast and dramatic high cliffs to the
South. Located at the far end of L’Eree beach,
you will find Lihou, a small island accessed
by a stone causeway at low tide only. This
forms part of Guernsey’s first RAMSAR site.

6 St Saviour
With plenty of lush green spaces for pasture,
farming has been at the heart of this
picturesque parish for centuries. St Saviour
is popular for its fine Guernsey farmhouses,
some dating from the 17th century.
7 Forest
Home to Guernsey’s airport and around
1,500 residents. With large areas of open
green space, the parish is well known for
its community floral displays, which have
won many Floral Guernsey and Britain in
Bloom awards.
8 Torteval
The smallest of the 10 parishes, Torteval has
plenty of space due to one of the lowest
population densities along with St Pierre du
Bois. Its name comes from the Guernesiais
for twisting valley. Torteval’s great attraction
is the Scarecrow Festival, an annual event
where residents show off their finest
creations outside of their homes.
9 St Andrew
Located in the centre of the island, St Andrew
is the only parish which is landlocked. Whilst
it may lack a coastline, it makes up for it in
agricultural charm - filled with rural pastures
and scenic valleys.
10 St Sampson
St Sampson is Guernsey’s second largest
town and contains the affectionately known
area, The Bridge. Now a recreational marina,
the harbour was historically a centre for
shipbuilding and an export hub for
Guernsey granite.
