4:00 Hours
Gain an insight into life on the peaceful island of Guernsey when it was in the terrifying grip of German occupation during WWII.
Photograph the arresting west coast seascape at the Pleinmont cliffs and take a close look at the gun emplacements remaining from the war. Stop off for tea and coffee with traditional Gâche fruit bread, then explore the maze of tunnels which span 75,000 feet at the German Underground Hospital, where you can peer into eerie operating theatres and x-ray rooms.
Head underground once more at the La Vallette Underground Military Museum – which was used as a storage site for U-Boat fuel – and hear about life under occupation as you marvel at fascinating items from this time.
