Le Hocq

Le Hocq is an area in the parish of St. Clement, in the south-east of Jersey, Channel Islands.

The headland juts out onto the rocky[2] Le Hocq Beach (a part of St. Clement's Bay).

The rest of the beach, stretching east, is sandy, but with many rockpools, with opportunities for winkle picking and shrimp catching close to the shore, and more serious fishing pursuits out at sea.

Just below Le Hocq Tower, west of the groyne of boulders, is a more pleasant sandy beach, which stretches round the headland to a very stony stretch of beach which reaches as far as Rocqueberg (Witches' Rock) and La Motte (Green Island).

Further inland is the parish hall (Salle Paroissiale) of St. Clement, and then a meadow featuring an original railway bridge from the days of the Jersey Railway, and a small brook which is unfortunately silted up for much of the year, before reaching Le Rocquier secondary school.

The Jersey Round Tower at Le Hocq is painted in a distinctive pattern to serve as a daymark for navigation
The parish hall of Saint Clement is the seat of municipal administration
