More than 7,000 people visited Guernsey's Visitor Information Centre in July, as the team marked a busy first summer in its new home in St Peter Port.

The centre in the Market Buildings was officially opened on 9 May, Liberation Day, by HRH The Princess Royal, after moving from its previous site at the North Plantation.

Signs were installed around the town and at the harbour this past week to help guide visitors to its new location.

A spokesperson for the centre said staff had also spent time in town and at the port greeting this year's influx of French tourists, offering help and directions on their arrival.
