Louise Ashworth, Head of Marketing at Visit Jersey commented: “We are delighted for St Brelade’s Bay Beach to have been recognised by travellers as one of the best beaches in the UK. St Brelade’s Bay is one of the island’s most popular beaches, loved by visitors for its soft sands, palm trees and safe swimming. In Jersey you’re never more than ten minutes from the water’s edge, so it’s easy to find the perfect space to unwind. We look forward to welcoming more visitors to discover our beautiful beaches this summer.”
