The story

La Rocco Tower is the last of the Jersey Round Towers built in the late 18th century to defend the wide sweep of St Ouen's Bay against French invasion. Marooned on a tidal rock at the southern end of the bay, it's only reachable on foot at low tide and is one of the island's most photographed landmarks at sunset.

What to expect

The single most iconic silhouette on Jersey's west coast — especially when the sun drops behind it.

Good to know

Only walkable at low tide; check the tide tables before crossing and watch the incoming sea.
