As you contemplate the colourful houses of St Peter Port clinging to the hillside, the place already starts to work its magic. This charming town is also an ideal departure point for exploring the so-called Green Island, the second largest of the Channel Islands, which offers those who take the time to come here the charm of authenticity. While cyclists and walkers will appreciate its pleasant countryside, swimmers are treated to sandy bays, in particular the splendid Cobo Bay. All the ingredients for a successful stay.
