Guernsey is an island in the English Channel and yachts come and go every day from far and wide. A Regatta is a special event when many boats gather and have races. The winner gets awarded with a trophy at a gala dinner on the last night. Lots of spectators come and watch.
And we were berthed next to all the classic sailing yachts in the harbour.
Spectators came to look around the yachts at the end of each race day.
St Peters Port
We walked around the harbour and looked over the walls to a beach of golden sands and clear blue water.
We then walked back into town and climbed up to a terrace balcony. The view out to sea was filled with yachts and ships.
And then an ice cream to finish on our last day at St Peters Port
In the evening we said farewell to all our neighbours and watched the racing yachtsmen leave for the Regatta gala prize event. All became quiet again as the sun set in the western sky.
