Well it's nice enough for a long weekend I guess. No reason to go back a second time, unless you left your luggage there the first time.

It's very small.
It's grim out of season but quite nice at other times.

I liked the "The Battle's Just Begun" album , hard to believe really its 10 years since they split up.

It's lovely to park up and wander for miles round the cliffs and every couple of hundred yards is a German fortification which I find interesting.
Worth hiring a car to get around and not expensive.
Ba do weekend deals for 3 nights for the price of 2 in the harbour at St helier in the radisson blu.
I forgotten the name of the place but the big beach on the west coast is a lovely cafe for breakfast. Fill you up before your day if exploring this beautiful place

That'll be St. Ouen's beach (pronounced Won's), which is pretty much the whole west coast.
It has a few eating establishments, Big Verne's, La Bray, El Tico........

You can also do long weekends out of Southend with Easyjet, for a good price.

OK for a few days, but even a week is too long.
We stayed at the St Brelades Bay Hotel, which was pretty good, but none of the guests seemed to be under 80 except us.
The vineyard is good, and the Jersey Cream liquer is wonderful. Can't get it anywhere on the mainland, which is a bit of a shit.l

"even a week is too long"
Says more about you than the place. Kids these days...

I'll take that as a compliment fivetide.
Now, where's that West Ham v Spurs programme from 1964 that I've mislaid....

Cant help but feel Ashman has fair hair, blue eyes and clicks his heels - his essays would be a thoroughly efficient read mind

Went there for our honeymoon, flew from Southend airport, probably a lot different these days as it was 54 years ago, Mike & Bernie Winters were performing at one of the night clubs.
