Grouville

Another of Jersey's most popular beaches, this rarely gets as crowded as the others because of its size.

GROUVILLE
parking: Reasonably easy at the Gorey end of the bay. There is a large car park next to the beach, as well as spaces across the road. Roadside parking is also an option.
refreshments: Several restaurants, cafes and bars at Gorey pier and in the village, as well as beach kiosks.
toilets: Several along the bay.
swimming: Very safe at all states of the tide, although the sea does recede a very long way at low tide!
sunshine: Catches the sun all day.
shelter: Well sheltered, except when the wind is an easterly one.
sand: Nearer Gorey, the sand is dry and golden, but further along it becomes wet and gritty.
beach sports: Water skiing, wakeboarding, banana boat rides, canoeing.
bus route:

I think this beach is very nice and it is the best beach on the island. The sand is nice and there is a little playground whih is fun.

We (me, wife plus two daughters)come to Jersey every two years. Grouville is our favourite beach. Always clean and we love the view of the castle.The girls think Gorey looks like Balamory !
