I live on the ''lovely'' island. St Ouens Bay (actually about 3 miles long, but down by the Splash is best, or Stinky Bay - further along) is one of the best places over here to catch a decent break. If that fails, you've got Greve De Lecq (just around the corner from St Ouen, but you have to be careful - lots of rocks), and theres normally a few hanging out at St Clements too (south/east of the island)
