Site briefing
This site was where the first hang glider soaring flight in Jersey was done by Nick Palmer on a McBroom Cobra in the late 1970's.
N'ly. Paragliders mostly use this site as the top landing is very small for HGs though recent scrub clearance has improved this. There are several large fields nearby that HGs could top land in or they could land at the Les Platons top landing area.
Top landing is highly preferable for HGs - though the rocky narrow beach is OK for slow HGs no-one would want to go down here.
Park in the nearby car park, with the bacon butty and ice cream van, and walk over (PGs). HGs are better to go to Les Platons. It ends up being the same site when you are up anyway
