Tips

Clarence Battery was built in 1780 as part of Fort George's outer defences and has a long history. It served as Guernsey's main fort during the French Revolution and was occupied by Germany during the Second World War, when it was used a Luftwaffe early warning system. A stroll here provides lovely views back towards the town and harbour.

Hiking

A few miles walk from the town but worth the amazing cliff top views
