Grève au Lançon, Sandy beach in northern Jersey.
Plémont is a sandy beach on Jersey's northern coast with natural rock pools scattered across the shore and sea caves carved into the cliffs. The shoreline is backed by tall coastal slopes where freshwater occasionally flows down the cliff face.
The beach served as a key landing site for fishermen during the 1800s, supporting Jersey's maritime trade activities. Its natural position made it suitable for fishing fleets and the exchange of goods.
Local families gather at Plémont during summer evenings to share traditional Channel Island meals and watch the sunset over the Atlantic.
The beach can be reached by bus or from the free parking area nearby, with a steep stairway leading down to the shore. During bad weather or high tide, some sections become difficult to access, so check the tides before visiting.
At low tide, extensive cave systems emerge from the cliffs that visitors can explore on foot, revealing passages that penetrate deep into the rock. These natural formations developed over thousands of years through erosion and show the geological history of the island.
