Saint Ouen's Bay
Saint Ouen's Bay is a large bay on Jersey's northwest coast featuring an expansive sandy beach that stretches for several kilometers. The shallow waters and rocky headlands frame this natural coastal inlet.
The bay has served as an important landing point and shipping location throughout Jersey's history. Its significance for maritime activity has endured across centuries.
At low tide, large sections of beach become exposed, allowing walks across the seabed. Checking tide times before visiting helps you make the most of your time here.
The bay is known for dramatic tidal movements where the water level can shift by up to 40 feet (12 meters). This extreme tidal range makes it a remarkable location for observing how water transforms the landscape.
