St Aubin

ST AUBIN´S BAY

A long stretch of gold/ yellow sand stretches to St Helier. Water sports, such as jet skiing, are permitted from La Haule. A cycle track from Havre des Pas in St Helier goes all the way along the bay to the village and then to Corbiere.

ST AUBIN´S HARBOUR

The harbour at St Aubin was originally a tiny fishing port. Its growth came after the discovery of the vast cod stocks off Newfoundland.  Jersey traders set out to fish these waters and bring back their `salted` cod for sale in Europe. Many of the merchants and fishing boat owners made fortunes and built grand houses along the harbour and close by; they were known locally as the ‘cod houses’.
Today, it is a popular spot for diners and visiting leisure sailors. The Harbourfront is lined with bars, cafes, and restaurants, and the adjacent village retains much of its original charm.

ST AUBIN´S VILLAGE

Meandering up the hill from the harbour, this is a charming spot for a stroll. Many of the original ‘cod houses’ can be seen in this area.

RESTAURANTS IN ST AUBIN

Noya Shapla is a stones throw from the harbour and is one of the best Indian restaurants in Jersey.

Tides Restaurant at the Somerville hotel overlooking the harbour and St Aubin’s Bay is the perfect spot for a summer lobster lunch.

WHAT TO SEE & DO

The village/ harbour area is the start of a very pleasant, slowly climbing hill all the way to Corbiere. It is actually the old railway line, now a tree-canopied walking and cycling path.  If you fancy waterskiing or a jetski zoom around the bay, head to the Jersey Seaport Centre at La Haule on St Aubin’s Bay. St Aubin’s Fort is easy to walk to at low tide, you’ll be rewarded with great views over the bay.
