La Rocque Point is located in the extreme southeast of Jersey. It was here that Baron de Rullecourt (1744-1781) landed on January 6, 1781, before heading west towards Saint-Hélier. Guided by two Jersiais, the Frenchman had managed to find his way through this maze of rocks on the water's edge, which were nonetheless battered by strong currents. He died of wounds sustained during his battle against the English forces. Since this episode, no less than two small forts and six Martello towers defend the access today.

La côte est de Jersey est très différente de la côte sud. Il y a beaucoup de roches énormes sur les plages très longues et superbes. L'eau est très loin du début de la plage.

On y trouve la plus belle maison de l'île, de mon point de vue. Belle petite plage, avec toilettes.
