Below is a sample from the CD of Portelet Bay Passage, Jersey
| This chart is part of the Approaches to St
Helier. Each route is presented on ARC's charts, as a series of
"chartpoints". |
 |
| This is the route description of the above passage. |
An attractive bay, ideal for swimmers with generally clear water. Access
from the land is via a long stairway which reduces the beach's popularity. Do not use the
Western side of the passage for anchorage due to rocks.
The Passage into Portelet Bay is marked by the Café just closed in by Janvrin's Tomb
bearing 010°. Ensure the Café is closed to avoid a drying rock on your starboard side.
Note : Beware of the Portelet Ledge which is awash at Chart Datum (striking mark is the
little hut with the green roof in transit with Janvrin Tomb)

| These are the two chartpoints that make up the
route. In this example a panoramic and zoomed photo are shown
Each chartpoint photograph has an explanation of what the navigator should be looking
at. |
