Jersey bay voted 'most beautiful'

Portelet Bay
Portelet Bay is in the southern parish of St Brelade

A bay on the south coast of Jersey is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, a travel company has said.

Sky Travel has included Portelet Bay in its list of top ten beaches, the only European beach to make the list.

The company's website said it chose Portelet because it is a lovely sandy cove surrounded by luscious countryside that was ideal for walking and cycling.

Other locations on the list include beaches in the Maldives, Hawaii, Barbados and Thailand.
