Coastal overlay logic

North Cliff Line

Steeper, cliff-backed shoreline with stronger scenic value, less visible tidal swing, and more exposed access.

South & East Tidal Fringe

Low-lying coast with wide tidal movement, exposed sand, and fast-changing walkable space around low water.

South Sheltered Bays

More sheltered south coast bays that tend to hold comfortable swimming and family conditions when the wind is moderate.

West Exposure Belt

More exposed Atlantic-facing coast where strong westerlies quickly reduce comfort for casual visits.

Highest scoring right now

St Ouen's Bay (Le Braye)

Good for walking now because there is enough room for a shorter walk, but the beach opens up more later. The falling tide gives you a little more room.

SourcesWhere the information comes from

Live rankings adapt the sources below into indicative scores. Coast Now is not an official weather, tide, navigation, or safety service; check official forecasts, signs, lifeguard advice, and local conditions before relying on it.

Tide and current height

Current tide, estimated height, next high, next low, and tide trend are adapted from Government of Jersey / Jersey Met feeds.

Weather and wind

Temperature, rain probability, UV, sunrise, sunset, and day-part wind forecasts are adapted from Government of Jersey / Jersey Met feeds. Open-Meteo fills hourly condition, wind, gust, and precipitation gaps.
