This is arguably one of Jersey's most beautiful beaches. Plémont boasts a unique natural beauty and enchanting beauty. A sandy bay on the northwest tip of the island, it is home to numerous rock pools, fascinating sea caves, and even a freshwater waterfall. Plémont is a popular beach among locals, sheltered by high cliffs and gentle surf. At low tide, hidden caves reveal themselves, making for a refreshing adventure, and little ones can explore rocky pools with sandy bottoms. Check the tide times before your trip to Plémont to find the right time for your beach adventure. At high tide, the sand is covered, and locals retreat to the rocks, where Royal Navy (RNLI) lifeguards patrol the beach throughout the summer.

The coastal path above the cliffs is also beautiful.

Grosnez Castle is a small 14th-century castle ruin located 4.5 kilometers from Saint Ouen, on the northwest coast of the Channel Island of Jersey. The name is derived from the Patois word grar ness – for "grey headland" – an apt description of the site. The castle was built around 1330 by Sir John des Roches. The gatehouse, the highest remaining part of the ruins, was protected by a drawbridge and a portcullis. However, the castle had several weaknesses. There was no second level of defence and no sally ports for counterattacks. Most importantly, there was no water supply within the walls. The castle was captured by French troops in 1373 and 1381 and was probably destroyed during the occupation of Jersey (1461–1468). Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grosnez_Castle

Liberation Square in St. Helier was officially opened as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations in 1995. The main building adjacent to the square, built in 1901 as part of St. Helier's railway station, served as the German Port Authority during the occupation. From a first-floor window of this building, the first two Allied soldiers to arrive in Jersey, Surgeon-Lieutenant Ronald McDonald and Sub-Lieutenant David Milln, hoisted the Union Flag onto the roof. Shortly thereafter, the flag was taken by Jersey's Harbourmaster, Captain Harry Richmond, to the neighboring Pomme D'Or Hotel, where, with the assistance of Colonel Robinson, it was hoisted up the flagpole on the balcony.
