Cobo beach is probably the second most popular beach on Guernsey. It is primarily a sandy channel lying between the distinctive Cobo geology.

Port Soif is sheltered, well protected sandy 180-degree cove which is very popular in the summer months with all ages. With the tide half-up and half-down it is a prime swimming spot.
