St Peter Port, capital of Guernsey

Postcard
The Bailiwick of Guernsey is a British Crown Dependency in the English Channel off the coast of Normandy. Saint Peter Port is the capital of Guernsey as well as the main port. With its cobbled streets and picturesque seafront marina, it is easy to see why St Peter Port is considered one of Europe's prettiest harbour towns.
 
Stamps
