What to do and see in Jersey, Channel Islands: The Best Beaches

June 7, 2021 Jasper Kershner

Nine miles by five miles. That’s the size of Jersey. It’s not a lot, you may think. You’d be wrong. The island is a mix of English reserve and French savoir-faire, cosmopolitan harbor and timeless hidden valleys, continental flair and scenes that are reassuringly familiar. Its diverse attractions and natural beauty offer something for everyone and make Jersey an ideal destination for short breaks, romantic weekends, active experiences, foodie getaways and family summer holidays.

Beauport Beach

This is a small beach on the southwest of the island. Easy to find if you google it. Beaches like St Brelade's are well developed and attractive to those who like this. But Beauport beach is completely undeveloped and very beautiful: one of the most lovely small beaches I have seen. I had to put a city in, and wrote St Aubin but it's a few miles from this.

Greve de Lecq

Reviewed By CoventryCrusader

This place contains all the best you can find on Jersey: small harbour with a lovely coastal village, wonderful beach (one of the best on the island), fabulous views and some historical buildings (no castle here but you can find a fort nearby). If you add a pub and coffee shop where you can have a good lunch (however it is not cheap experience) everything is like the quintessence of Jersey! Even if we visited the place in rather poor weather (cludy sky and drizzling rain) we enjoyed every moment spent there.

Plemont Bay

Reviewed By nellieboots66 - Swindon, United Kingdom

This bay is stunning. It is very steep to get too but so worth it. Wouldn’t be suitable for anyone with mobility issues. There was a lifeguard on duty when we visited. The cafe at the top of the steps was really lovely too. It catered for vegans which is always a plus. The only consideration was that the sand is almost entirely wet so you need to ensure you take a chair/ towel if you intend to sit on the beach

Archirondel Beach

Reviewed By Annette269 - Burnopfield, United Kingdom

A very pleasant beach - all pebble at high tide so consider beach shoes. It slopes quite steeply which makes it great for swimming - Probaably less good if you have smaller children. There's a cafe and a great view- perfect for a few hours

We parked up at the bay prior to having lunch at the Smugglers Inn. It is a beautiful crescent of clean clean sand. There is a Martello Tower and some evidence of German WW2 Atlantic wall defences.
