Youghal was made for traditional family seaside holidays!
Youghal was made for traditional family seaside holidays! The prestigious BlueFlag, the international standard for the best beaches in the world, flies proudly at three of Youghal’s top beaches – The Front Strand, Claycastle Beach and Redbarn Beach. This means you can count on safe swimming, excellent water quality, good facilities and cleanliness. Front Strand is elevated and sheltered so it’s ideal for picnics and sand-castle-building, while the expansive golden sands of Claycastle make this beach perfect for running, walking and ball games. Plus, there’s a lifeguard on duty during high season and ample parking. Further up, Redbarn Blue Flag Beach offers a beautiful combination of sand, pebble and shell and is ideal for swimming.
Holiday Tip
The famous Youghal Eco Boardwalk – Ireland’s seafront boardwalk – connects all three beaches, with lots of seating and coffee stops.
