Islands in Channel Islands


Islands in Channel Islands

The Islands fall into two separate Bailiwicks (historic feudal divisions), each of which has its own separate government. Guernsey, Alderney and Sark (comprising the Bailiwick of Guernsey) is effectively a Customs Union with no customs controls between them (despite the fact that Sark levies taxes on alcohol and tobacco at a much reduced rate to the rest of the Bailiwick!)
Bailiwick of Guernsey
Smaller than Jersey, and pretty, with a smaller town but less open countryside than Jersey. It also includes the islands of Alderney, Sark, Herm, and many smaller offshore islands.
Bailiwick of Jersey
The largest and most developed of the islands, with the most to do.
