The Royal Visit to Guernsey

On Monday 15th July and Tuesday 16th July the Channel Islands played host to King Charles III and Queen Camilla, for their first visit since His Majesty's Accession to the throne.


The visit highlighted the special and historic relationship between the Channel Islands and the Crown which stretches back centuries.

The Royal couple started their visit in a rainy Jersey where the focus of the visit was on St Helier.

After an overnight stay at Government House they travelled to Guernsey where the weather was altogether sunnier!

Relive this historic occasion and take a look back at two days to remember:

Take a look back at some of the King and Queen's previous visits to the Channel Islands:

Charles in the Channel Islands
In May 1995 Prince Charles visited Sark. Mary Nightingale, an ice cream maker on Sark, in the Channel Islands, digs into her cycle-borne freezer to find one of her products for Britain's Prince of Wales who was visiting the island Wednesday to mark the 50th anniversary of its liberation at the end of the World War II. Mary received a loan of 5,000 from the Prince's Trust to help increase the size of her business.
