THE first Channel Islands Heritage Festival - now on and running through to May 11 - depicts the history of the five islands – Jersey, Guernsey,

during WWII – feature special openings of historic sites such as the
tunnels at Guernsey's Castle Cornet, history-themed cycle tours, a shark egg
hunt on Alderney's shores, and open days at forts and bunkers.
