Worth the drive to this Beach. It is a bit of a challenge to get down to it but so worth it. Mesmerizing is really the key word. I saw it at dusk and in the daylight and it was so different each time.

We discovered this beach at the end of our day driving the Wild Atlantic way. In hindsight, we should have driven straight here and just hanged out at the beach. We arrived here without any beach gear (swim suits, towels etc), but it didn't matter. We were just happy to walk or sit on the gorgeous white sandy beach, play in the crystal clear water and admire the beauty of the landscape. We had only allowed ourselves an hour here, next time we'll make sure that we can spend most of the day to relax at the beach.

Doughmore Bay is a place hard to find elsewhere in Ireland. Kilometers of sand, each day different and loved by pet holders and their dogs, surfers, beach walkers and sometimes even golfers. A plate gives evidence of a tragedy which happened 1941, when a British Sunderland flying boat had to make a forced landing on the sea You will meet sea gulls, gannets and, if you are lucky, two Border Collies who go for a stroll every morning. When you want to walk the whole bay look for low tide.

Went there on a beautiful (surprise) September day- and it really is a stunningly beautiful beach with deep soft sand and amazing views out to Sleeping Giant island and cliffs at the end of the peninsula. But the warning remains to not swim there, you can see the ocean waves passing by the cove's entrance sideways. This makes for strong currents on what looks like a peaceful cove. Instead enjoy a walk on this empty beach, and enjoy the views and fresh air
