Greve de Lecq Beach is a popular destination on Jersey's north shore, offering a sandy and sheltered bay that attracts visitors from around the island. .

Greve de Lecq Beach is a sandy sheltered bay located on Jersey's north shore. The beach is surrounded by high cliffs on either side, providing a natural shelter from the wind for most of the time. However, this also means that the beach tends to lose the late afternoon sun.

The beach itself has no facilities, but there are several amenities available nearby. The nearby town of St Ouen is within walking distance, offering a range of shops, cafes, and toilets. Visitors can also find parking in the vicinity. A notable feature of the beach is a large cave that runs all the way through the headland on the eastern side, while at the other end are the foundations of an abandoned harbour wall.

Greve de Lecq Beach is a great spot for a day out in Jersey, with the Prince of Wales, a family-run guest house, overlooking the beach and offering a place to eat after a day on the sand.
