Garryvoe strand
If you like your beaches you’ll find this is one of the best around locally. I’ve spent a fair bit of time walking up and down it. It’s quite long and when the tide is out you get a lovely level strand that’s great for long walks. It’s got the biggest sky you’ve ever seen, the local topography is quite flat so there’s not much to obstruct your view of it.
Added benefits are that you can swim here as parts of it have Blue Flag status. The seabird life is excellent, there’s a playground for kids.
The Garryvoe Hotel, which has recently been refurbished, is very close by so you can treat yourself to the lap of luxury any time you like. All round this beach is a winner and well worth a visit.
