Plemont Bay

Details

Plemont Bay, also known as 'La Greve au Lancon', is a stunning, secluded cove on the north-west coast of Jersey. Accessible via a long flight of steps down a steep clifftop, the effort to reach it is rewarded by its natural beauty. The beach is sheltered by high cliffs and features some of the island's largest sea caves, which can be explored at low tide. Strong tidal patterns mean the beach is completely submerged at high tide, but a beautiful crescent of golden sand and numerous rock pools are revealed as the tide recedes.

Plemont Bay is a haven for wildlife, with puffins inhabiting the cliffs and various marine creatures like cuckoo wrasse and short-snouted seahorses in the waters. The surrounding dunes are home to green lizards, lesser white-toothed shrews, and short-toed treecreepers. Lifeguards patrol the beach during the summer months, and while generally safe for swimming, conditions can become challenging in choppy seas. The bay is also a popular spot for surfing and boogie boarding, with a sandy bottom and waves breaking close to shore. Visitors should check tide times before their trip to ensure the sand is exposed.
