À vélo de Saint-Hélier à Le Hocq

This scenic 10 km ride takes you from the lively streets of Saint Helier, Jersey’s bustling capital, out to the laidback shores of Le Hocq. You’ll start right in the heart of Saint Helier, known for its Victorian markets, friendly cafés, and seaside charm. Rolling out, most of your route sticks to peaceful, quiet roads — perfect for a relaxed spin without much traffic.

As you head east through the island’s grassy outskirts, you’ll climb gently (about 129 meters ascent in total — just enough to get the legs working), before cruising down toward the sea. The ride is mostly paved, with occasional stretches of paving stones to keep things interesting.

Le Hocq is your reward: a quaint spot on Jersey’s southeast coast, famous for its 18th-century Martello tower perched by the beach. It’s the ideal place for a seaside break or maybe a well-deserved ice cream. Pack your camera — the coastal views here are proper postcard material!
