The Channel Islands were a small island chain just southeast of Hillsbrad and located in Baradin Bay between Azeroth and Zul'Dare. An orc base had been set up in the Zul'dare region of the Channel Islands in order to attack alliance towns like Hillsbrad. The Alliance used transport ships to reach the islands to destroy the base on Zul'dare. The horde destroyed a few alliance outposts on smaller islands of the channel to secure a foothold in reaching Southshore and Hillsbrad.
