Anne Port Bay
Anne Port’s east facing shingle beach reveals fine sand along most of the beach in mid or low tide and gentle shelving makes for good swimming. This delightful bay enjoys the morning and midday sun and is rarely crowded. A great spot for a morning dip, or if you’re simply looking for some peace and quiet.
Archirondel Bay
Archirondel is a very popular pebbly beach with plenty of sandy space to stretch out on too. Swim in the clear calm sea, skim stones and watch them skip across the water, or explore hidden rock pools at low tide. At high tide the sand is covered, so be sure to time your adventure just right.
Beauport Bay
Beauport Bay is the perfect bay for soaking up the sun and is nestled in the west of the island, surrounded by cliffs on three sides. We are proud of our clear local waters, and Beauport’s is worthy of a special mention as it’s pristine; making it the perfect spot for swimming, snorkelling and rock jumping.
Belcroute Bay
Belcroute Bay is a hidden gem, a small, secluded cove with a shingle beach. Top tip - visit early in the day as this quiet spot loses the sun just after midday. The sheltered pebble beach makes for a perfect day’s escape. When the tide is up, it’s ideal for swimming, snorkelling and stand up paddle boarding.
Bonne Nuit Bay
Bonne Nuit, French for ‘good night’ because of its reputation as a quiet and peaceful mooring, is a small natural harbour nestled in the north coast and sheltered by the cliffs towering above it. At low tide, a small sandy beach appears below the pebbles, a perfect spot to build sandcastles, make some beach art or enjoy a picnic.
Bouley Bay
Bouley Bay is a tiny harbour on the north coast flanked by green cliffs with a sandy shelf descending into deep blue waters. Follow a series of hairpin bends as the road winds its way down towards the bay to reveal a deep anchorage. The pebble beach shelves steeply into deep waters best enjoyed by stronger swimmers.
Fliquet Bay
Located on the far north east of the island, Fliquet Bay is a beautifully scenic spot, where it’s possible to enjoy panoramic views across to France. Fliquet Bay has a mixture of pebbles, sand and rock and it is sheltered from westerly and south westerly winds. This is a bay where you can escape the everyday hustle and bustle and relax.
Ouaisné Bay
Ouaisné, the adjoining beach to St. Brelade's Bay is a south-west facing beach and wilder in contrast to the neighbouring St. Brelade's Bay. The two beaches are connected at low tide, or cross the pine-rich headland and walk along the sea wall next to the protected Ouaisné Common towards locals’ favourite, The Smugglers Inn.
Plémont Bay
This has to be one of Jersey’s most beautiful beaches. Plémont has a natural drama and enchanting beauty all of its own. A sandy cove on the north-west tip of the island with many rock pools, fascinating sea caves, and even a fresh water waterfall.
Portelet Bay
Getting to Portelet Bay is an adventure in itself. Those brave enough to take the steep descent down the steps from the cliff to this western beach can enjoy a bracing swim in the crystal clear water. Like St. Aubin’s Bay, Portelet faces south so you can bask in the sun’s rays throughout the day.
Robin Bay
Robin Bay is a small, sandy, sheltered beach in the south east of Jersey, next to La Rocque Harbour. It's the perfect sun trap where soft sand beckons rock climbing adventures, rock pooling and paddling. Take care if you're swimming, as the currents here can be quite strong. It's best to stay in the sheltered cove of the bay.
Rozel Bay
Rozel Bay is a beautiful fishing port nestled in Jersey’s north-east, sheltered by green rolling hills. Low tide reveals a small expanse of beautiful white sand with tiny fishing boats stranded on it’s banks. Many are drawn to this blissful scene to pass a quiet afternoon over cloudless views of the French coast.
St. Aubin’s Bay
St. Aubin’s Bay sprawls over the central part of Jersey’s southern coast. Explore a vast expanse of sandy beach spanning from St. Helier to St. Aubin’s Harbour. As the bay faces south, you can bask in the sunshine from dawn to dusk. Feel the loose, golden sand beneath your feet as you walk along this sheltered beach.
St. Brelade’s Bay
This beautiful Jersey beach at St. Brelade’s Bay is one of island’s most popular, loved by visitors for its golden sand and safe swimming. If you’re visiting the island, you’ll find plenty to do at St. Brelade’s beach including family friendly activities, watersports, beach cafés and seaside restaurants, beach walks and plenty of sunbathing spots.
St. Catherine’s Bay
St. Catherine's Breakwater and Bay are most popular with both novice and skilled sailors, canoeists and anglers, it is home to St. Catherine's Sailing Club and the Jersey Canoe Club. Originally planned as a harbour for the Royal Navy to counter the threat of a French invasion, the breakwater was started in 1847 but shallow water halted their plans.
St. Ouen’s Bay
With its sun kissed headland and soft sandy beaches, Jersey's western shoreline offers up some of the island's most magical locations, a long stretch of golden sand and views over the Atlantic Ocean make St. Ouen's Bay something special. The bay is a great spot for a sunset BBQ with the family, just over the road from the stunning sand dunes.
The Royal Bay of Grouville
The Royal Bay of Grouville, known to locals as Long Beach, has a long stretch of soft golden sand with calm sheltered waters perfect for swimming. You can enjoy water skiing, wakeboarding, banana boat rides and even hire a motor dinghy in summer. Young families will love this friendly beach nestled near the sleepy Gorey Village.
Grève de Lecq Beach
This sheltered north facing beach is fringed with wooded slopes and leafy country pubs. A firm favourite with families, with rocks to climb, pools to search for critters in, a sea that’s never too far out even at a low tide and lifeguards during the summer months, all make this beach a winner.
