St Aubin

St Aubins Bay stretches from St Helier through First Tower, Beaumont to the harbour village of St Aubin. The beach is sandy and south facing, with safe swimming. Because the beach is so flat, the tide goes out about 300m – creating a huge expanse of beach. In parts, the sea reaches the wall at high tide, but it’s only covered completely on the highest tides.  The picturesque little harbour of St Aubin, the unique Fishermen’s Chapel and the beautiful Parish Church are important features. The village (or town) of St Aubin was originally a fishing port facing St. Helier on the opposite side of St. Aubin’s Bay. St Aubin was historically the main centre of population in the parish, but residential development at Les Quennevais has shifted that centre of population.
