The Channel Islands are a group of islands located in the English Channel, just off the coast of Normandy, France. They include Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, and Herm. A little fun fact about the islands is that they are technically classified as an "Autonomous British Crown Dependency" and are not part of the United Kingdom. They are independant in the fields of government, law, and financial systems, but the UK manages their defense & international relations. The islands are a very popular tourist destination due to their incredible natural beauty and are somewhere I'd love to visit myself someday!
