Pembroke
Pembroke and L’Ancresse form a single, wide bay at the very north of the island, with a shallow breach, plenty of sand and good clean water.
The eastern headland that defines one end of the bay is home to the rifle range, while on the eastern edge there’s a broad, long concrete slab, which is good for sunbathing.
The image below shows the view across L’Ancresse, close to the viewpoint, to Pembroke at the far end of the bay.
