Saint Aubin, Port settlement on the southern coast of Jersey, Channel Islands.
Saint Aubin is a port settlement on the southern coast of Jersey that features a harbor used by fishing vessels and leisure boats throughout the year.
The town grew from a fishing village and became an important economic center during earlier centuries, particularly noted for its role in the Newfoundland cod fishery trade.
The settlement features traditional stone-built houses and narrow streets that reflect its maritime heritage, with the Anglican church of St. Aubin on the Hill overlooking the harbor below.
The harbor provides sheltered mooring conditions for small vessels, and the waterfront includes cafes and restaurants accessible to visitors exploring the Channel Islands by sea or land.
St. Aubin's Fort stands on a tidal island accessible at low tide via a causeway, featuring granite walls and ramparts modified during World War II by German forces.
