Honorary Police are warning islanders they risk a fine if they park on the beach without a valid permit.
The recent spell of hot weather has sent thousands of people flocking to the island's coastline.
That has prompted Honorary Police in St Brelade to highlighted the prevalence of cars stopping on the sand at the western end of St Brelade's Bay.
In a recent social media post, they are reminding motorists of the rules, with include displaying a valid beach parking permit which is only valid for loading and unloading a boat.
This only applies in St Brelade's bay, east of the slipway below the church, and at La Haule, east of the slipway to the white line. Parking on other beaches in prohibited.
Failing to display a valid permit it is an offence, and parking illegally on the beach risks a £200 fine.
Meanwhile, further reminders have also been issued by St Helier Honorary Police about parking on slipways.
Sensible parking is allowed on beach slipways if the vehicle does not block access - although parking is not permitted at all on any slipway in St Helier, where a vehicle left on a slipway is liable to be removed at the owner's expense.
Access is required for emergency service should they need to respond to an incident on our coastline.
