Foynes plages

This small blue flag beach has become more popular in recent years due to the addition of a Surf Life facility. Despite this, it still offers a scenic coastal walk to the headland and the boathouse, which takes about an hour. Along the way, you'll find the famous 'Kieran’s Hole,' a swimming spot off the rocks, just 10 minutes into the walk down a set of steps. During the summer, you can rent kayaks and boards. However, skip the instant coffee available at the caravan park—bring your own flask or visit the 'Wooden Spoon' in town for a better option! The Clare County Council provides outdoor solar showers and toilets that are open from roughly 9am to 8pm, along with lifeguard services. The area also welcomes wild camping in tents or campers on the grassy triangle overlooking the ocean, offering free fun for all!

Fantastic spot, perfect for spending some time, even if you just want to sit and unwind.

This beach is absolutely fabulous and impeccably clean. It's perfect for both small children and adults. It's delightful to take off your shoes and feel the sand between your toes without worrying about stones. I would highly recommend it to anyone vacationing in Ireland.
