Braye Harbour
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Braye Harbour is the main harbour of Alderney in the Channel Islands, a British dependency, not in the UK. It has one of the longest harbour walls in Europe.
It is here that most of the island's freight comes in, and also the ferry. It is more or less a suburb of St Anne.
Braye is a Norman word found in several locations around the coasts of the Channel Islands. It means a "passage between rocks".
