Guernsey is only 25 square miles in area, so wherever you want to go, it'll be within easy reach. You can walk to several attractions from the site, or catch the round-island bus from a nearby stop. The island’s 20th-century history is entwined with that of World War II, with several commemorative places to visit. A 20-minute drive away is the German Occupation Museum, which has displays including weapons and uniforms, as well as a reconstruction of shops as they would have been. Among the German fortifications left, the restored gun bunker at Fort Hommet is closest and can be reached on foot in around an hour. A must-see is The Little Chapel, built in the early 20th century by an exiled French priest and thought to be the smallest consecrated church in the world (about eight people can fit inside). Every surface inside and out is covered with a mosaic of broken china, pebbles and shells – look closely to see the details and then step back to take in the overall effect. At the end of the day, do as the locals do and pack up a picnic or barbecue and walk 10 minutes to Port Grat beach to dine as you watch the sun set over the white sands.
