This beautiful blue flag beach is a hidden gem, even on a cloudy day in Ireland. Lifeguards are on duty during the summer months. The road down to the beach is narrow and twisty, so drive carefully. We didn't have time to visit the Derrynane house, as the beach was too tempting. Our young children had a great time playing in the sand and water. There are rockpools to explore and even an Abbey and graveyard on an island accessible at low tide. The carpark is a decent size, but not very wheelchair accessible. There are bins and two public toilets, which were clean. It's definitely worth the drive to visit this beach, especially if the sun is shining.
