Town and port in Saint Brelade, Jersey
Saint Aubin
St Aubin is a town and port in La Vingtaine du Coin, St Brelade, Jersey.
It is located on the western end of St Aubin's Bay, on the south coast of the island, opening out into the Gulf of Saint-Malo. It was originally a fishing village and the historic economic centre of the island. St Aubin is the civil administrative centre for the parish of St Brelade; however, ecclesiastically, the parish church is located in St Brelade's Bay. It retains a more historic character than St Helier, whose architecture has changed as the centre of Jersey's finance industry.
