The 5 Best Things to do Adventurous in Guernsey, Channel Islands

June 10, 2021 Venice Greaves

A British crown dependency, the sunny (well, relatively speaking) island of Guernsey boasts mild winters and warm summer months. From coasteering to kayaking, windsurfing to foodie foraging, outdoor enthusiasts of all types will love to roam this gorgeous Channel Island. A great base for fishing and angling trips, Guernsey also has plenty to see and do on the mainland. Explore Neolithic sites, stoic Castle Cornet, and ancient burial sites like Le Creux es Faies, a tomb that was once believed to be the gateway to a magical fairyland.

German Naval Signals HQ

This was the headquarters of the German Naval Commander of the Channel Islands during WWII. The Signals HQ handled all the important radio signals traffic for the German Forces during the Occupation. The bunker complex was completed in 1944 and housed powerful communication equipment and Enigma enciphering machines. Over half the complex has been restored to its wartime appearance with original fixtures, fittings, objects and equipment.

Reviewed By bootsmannsmaat

The German Naval Signal Station is a superbly restored German Naval Command Bunker, with great exhibits with rooms restored as they would have been back in the 1940’s. Well worth spending an hour or two if you are interested in the German Occupation. I have visited several time and will do again the May 2020
