Geography
St Peter Port is located on the East coast of Guernsey. It borders St Sampson's in the North, The Vale in the North-West, St Andrew's in the West and St Martin's in the South.
Beaches A lot of the coast is used up by the harbour but the beaches in St Peter Port include: - Part of Belle Greve Bay
- Havelet Bay
- Soldiers Bay
- Part of Fermain Bay
Relief The land in the North and by the harbour is low lying but in the South, the land gets much higher (but not as high as St Martin's or the Forest). This means that there are quite a few cliffs on the coast between Havelet and Fermain.
Features The features of the town include:
