Le Brayes (Jersey)

St Helier, Jersey

Les Brayes is not normally surfed in the summer because it picks up less surf than the splash and life guards flag the area off for swimmers only. Works best with an easterly wind and westerly swells. In large winter groundswells the break can get very powerful with some long walled up barrels. It is best on the dropping tide when the rip is less severe.
