You will be met by your guide at the quayside and transferred by coach to Icart Point, a spectacular viewpoint overlooking the south coast cliffs, PETIT BOTBAY and the smaller coves of LE JAONNET BAY and LABETTE.
The walk will follow the high cliffs around the point and down into SAINTS BAY valley, with views of the PEASTACKS and PETIT PORT and the small local fishing harbour at Saints Bay. Enjoy views of Moulin Huet from where, in the summer of 1885 the painter Auguste Renior spent many hours painting and enjoying the spectacular scenery.
Your walk continues past one of the 15 granite coastal defence loop hole towers built in Napoleonic times to defend the islanders from the French. A long gradual climb, (some steps and uneven terrain) takes you up from the valley continuing around the cliff path to the Les Cotils which is perched on the cliff top affording great views while you enjoy a delicious Guernsey cream tea before finally returning to the harbour and your ship.
- Recommend casual clothes with light jackets and a waterproof layer just in case. Sturdy walking shoes also.
