3 OF IRELAND’S BEST BEACHES

Bundoran Beach

Surfers Know beaches, and the world championships were held in Bundoran in '97. Since then, this small town hosts a number of other high-profile tournaments.

They come to The Peak, one of the best waves in Europe, and the locals will be only too happy to tell you about his "nice clean barrel" and "steep, steep drop-in."

No, I do not understand it either. But the beach itself is a real beauty, which stretches over more than 2 km, and surfing is not mandatory.

Getting there: Exit the N15 at Bundoran and drive through town following the coastal road to the signposted beach.

Rossnowlagh Beach

Also called the Heavenly Cove, this is often a trifle away from the coast and is another destination for surfers. If you are not exactly world class material you might want here, where you will not be in the line next to the best of the best for a crack at The Peak.

Windsurfing, kite surfing, and swimming are also popular, and the beach is easily accessible by a surfing club, a lifeguard station, and a bar in nearby Sand House Hotel. You can also park your car right on the sand, although the speed is below 15 km / h for obvious reasons.

Many people come in the summer, yet it is hidden and you could easily pass by without knowing it. When I drove in, I passed a store that the house owners felt the requirement to advertise "open all year," and to a small degree brown church created entirely of sheet metal.

Access: Let Bundoran on the N15 northbound, and after about 5km take the R231 in Ballyshannon. The beach was signed after another 9 km or so.

Murvagh Beach

Murvagh beach lies on the southern coast of Donegal and is located along the N15 south of Donegal town. Turn right for Murvagh village and the road takes you to a forest, driving through a small wooded area and Murvagh parking lot at the end of this road.

we are in the northwest of Ireland here, the water at Murvagh Beach is probably the warmest anywhere in the country during the summer months, as the tide come in more than one kilometer from the shallow sandbanks, making the sun a lot of time to be work to do.

This makes it an ideal beach for children, swimming for adults are limited to an hour or so either side of the tide.

The beach is approached by a number of beautiful woods and dunes are designated as special protection areas inland.
