Really nice beach. Faces east so very protected. Nice sized car park,which I imagine isn't sufficient in summer, as is the way. Coffee hut above the and a.beach shower, which I wish all Irish swim sports had, but are very rare. No significant tidal current that I could discern but the reefs 400metre to the SW of the are prone to catching any tiny fraction of swell, even if they look flat from the beach. From east (far) side of beach, 1250 metres swimming to outside of Baginbun Head, expert swimmers only, no exits, no interesting caves. Typical one metre swell even on calm days. Public portaloo toilets at top of car are a fantastic resource for east side of Hook Head. Wexford CoCo & Feathard on sea should be commented on their excellent upkeep. Lovely, clean, long for walking, lots of shells on the shore, the kids had a great time picking out the prettiest of them, a borrow/play/return box on the contains a good array of items for building castles etc for those who make an unscheduled visit or for those who forgot theirs, I love that. Toilets nearby, the village is tidy with a great playground, the Only possible downfall is there isn't much parking, some cars parked on the beach, Enjoyed our time there, small and quite busy, parking minimal so you might have to walk quite far. Two portaloos which are far from the itself but clean Stunningly beautiful beach, but very crowded. There are bio-toilets, a cafe. Nearby hiking trails with panoramic ocean views. But hard to find a place to park your car. Gets the sun, fabulous small and sun trap! 19 min drive from Ralph Road in Fethard. Kayaking available to hook in beach. This is a beautiful sheltered beach. Some gorgeous rocks with lots of little privacy nooks. Lovely to walk around the headland too, but so unfortunate that I could not walk the whole way around, this is due to home owners not allowing access. Such a shame. A cafe is open at the weekend, I think, and there is also a small sauna - both not available as my visit was mid week. Good parking, I can see that it would be very busy at weekends and holiday periods. We loved playing on the beach. It was a chilly day, so got coffee at the nearby shop and sipped while our children played. Enjoyed the scenery and a great spot for paddle boarding and exploring. Parking is limited, so get there early. Public bathroom at the back of the car park, changing rooms for kayakers or paddle boarders, attached cafe for coffee and ice cream, plus a shower to rinse off sand before you return to your car. It is a chilly spot, so plan accordingly! Absolutely incredible. Breathtaking views of the sunrise on the solstice. Early morning so wouldn't know if it is a busy spot... but I could see it being! Positives: Lifeguard, Caves, Great waves, water stays in and quite high from the minute you step into the water, lovely sandy beach, feels secluded portaloos and coffee dock at top of ramp. Negatives: waves carry in stones, pebbles and rocks so it can be rough, plenty of seaweed, steep ramp allows access so you need to be mobile as you've to carry your picnic etc down this ramp to the beach.
