Top Things to do in St. Brelade
The 10 Best Free Things to do in St. Brelade, Channel Islands
St. Brelade, in the Jersey Islands, is home to several beautiful bays with golden sands. St. Brelade Bay is a great place for an active beach day—beachgoers enjoy canoeing, banana boat rides, trampolines and kayaking. Visit the Fisherman’s Chapel to see the perquage, a path from the chapel to the sea. Ancient law allowed a criminal to seek sanctuary in the chapel for eight days. On the ninth, he had to surrender or walk down the path to board a boat, which would carry him into permanent exile from the island.

2. Beauport Beach
Overall Ratings

This is a small beach on the southwest of the island. Easy to find if you google it. Beaches like St Brelade's are well developed and attractive to those who like this. But Beauport beach is completely undeveloped and very beautiful: one of the most lovely small beaches I have seen. I had to put a city in, and wrote St Aubin but it's a few miles from this.

Took a family friend out for lunch at the Harbour Gallery Cafe yesterday and a look around the Gallery after being closed for 2 weeks. She was very impressed with the food and the relaxed friendly atmosphere. She enjoyed her tuna melt and I had my favourite vegan sausage roll. Afterwards we could not resist treating ourselves to a cake from the tempting display on offer as well as looking at all the amazingly crafted work downstairs. Will continue to recomend this as a trip whenever looking for a day out as there is always the gaurentee of fantastic food upstairs and something new downstairs!

10. Portelet Bay

Portelet bay again is one of my favourites. Buses run frequently from St. Helier. Portelet just has a few minor problems. There are lots of steep steps down to the bay and definitely not for the disabled or people are not good with their legs. Its easy going down, but very hard coming back up. Remember the saying, what goes down has to come back up. The beach is well worth visiting with a small island in the middle. Take your camera. There is a restaurant and bar at the top called the old portelet.
