St Ouen's Bay Le Port Beach, located on the west coast of Jersey, is a popular destination for beachgoers and surfers alike. .

St Ouen's Bay is the longest beach in Jersey, spanning nearly the full length of the island's west coast. The beach is locally referred to as 'the five mile road' due to its extensive length. It is a superb surfing beach, with consistent Atlantic swells making it an ideal spot for surfers of all levels.

The beach boasts a cafe/restaurant and beach club at the Watersplash, providing refreshments and amenities for visitors. The beach itself is comprised of soft golden sand, with approximately three miles of sandy shoreline. St Ouen's Bay runs in front of several areas, including La Braye, which can be busier and more crowded, but secluded areas can usually be found a short walk away.

There is ample parking available near the beach, although it can become crowded during the summer months. Regular buses also run to the beach, providing an alternative for those using public transport. Nearby, the Prince of Wales, a family-run guest house, overlooks the beach at Greve de Lecq, offering a place to eat after a day on the sand.
