Anybody know of any sites that have POI's for the channel islands - specifically Jersey?

I've had a look at the usual haunts and Google, but I can't find any!

Looking for POI which has the Jersey attactions in it shch as the Underground Hospital, Wildlife trust etc...

Any ideas?

Thanks

Lee

A combination of Google Earth and Google search will allow you to produce a POI file on the device, my only worry would be the accuracy if using PostCodes, which is why I would use Google Earth to refine the position. The underground Hospital for example can be clearly seen on Google Earth (well the tunnels leave some witness marks on the surface) - try N49,2138 W2,15175

Also have a look at This Page for a tourist map overlay for Google Earth - quite handy for finding castles/ Golf Clubs and many other attractions - Mike
