LOCATION

Little Russell

Little Russell is a channel that divides the islands of Guernsey and Herm. Ferries coming to Guernsey pass through it and it’s frequently used as a stopping point for cruise liners when visiting the island. When the sea is particularly rough, ferries are sometimes held in Little Russell until it is safe to enter that harbour at St Peter Port.

Little Russell is the body of water over which the annual air display takes place. You can cross it in around 15 minutes in a small boat.

Great Russell sits between Herm and Sark.

What's this all about?

This web site, and its contents, are here to support The Sarnian, a series of books set on and around the Channel Islands, and Guernsey in particular. It started as a means of keeping track of each character so that their features, loves, desires, abilities, looks and so on didn't change from book to book and has grown to become a complete encyclopedia of the series. Unless otherwise stated, the images included on this site were taken by The Sarnian author, Nik Rawlinson, who is also the author of the content.
