Saints Bay
A pretty sandy cove with a shingle bank at the top of the beach. Nestled in the south coast cliffs, it’s a well sheltered spot with beautiful views. Lovely beach café but no parking close to the beach, so be prepared for a walk.
Beaches
Rocquaine Bay
A vast sandy beach with beautiful views of the Cup and Saucer (Fort Grey). There are no facilities at the bay, however, the Guernsey Pearl café is behind the bay and Portelet kiosk is a short walk away.
Portinfer Beach
For more experienced surfers, Portinfer is the beach for you, it can pick up more swell than at Vazon, however, in the summer it can get busy. This pretty secluded cove is just a stone’s throw from Port Soif beach and offers soft white sand, clear sea and great rock pools to explore.
Port Grat Bay
A pretty horseshoe bay with soft white sand, clear water and rock pools to explore. Similar to Port Soif but, due to having limited parking and no facilities, it tends to be much quieter.
Le Grand Havre Bay
A wide bay encompassing a number of beaches: Rousse (great for swimming and has a fantastic kiosk), Le Picquerel (small sheltered sandy beach), Les Amarreurs (a picturesque small harbour with a playground behind the beach), Ladies Bay and Chouet (beautiful family-friendly beaches with great facilities).
Le Jaonnet
A remote sandy cove that you’ll more than likely have to yourself because it’s a trek to get to… 10mins off the Icart cliff path, then down 218 steps, then down a ladder to get to the beach. Not one for young kids!
L’Eree Beach
A large and popular family beach near to the Cup and Saucer (Fort Grey), with soft golden sand, beautiful clear sea and rock pools for exploring.
Vazon Bay
If you and your family are into watersports, then this is the beach for you. A beautiful wide sandy beach with the largest surf on the island, makes Vazon a hotspot for Guernsey’s watersports enthusiasts.
Cobo Bay
One of Guernsey’s most popular beaches, Cobo Bay is the perfect family beach for swimming, sandcastles, beach games and rock pooling. With plenty of amenities close by it’s no wonder it’s a popular choice.
Portelet
A beautiful sandy cove and a small working fishing harbour which is great for rock pooling and hunting for sea glass.
