Wexford Beaches

Best Beaches in Wexford

 

 

County Wexford is the proud home to some of the best beaches in Ireland. Wexford boasts a series of stretched, sandy beaches which are ideal for building sandcastles, for water-sports enthusiasts, for swimming in rock pools or collecting shells and simply enjoying the sand between your toes. So breathtaking, even Hollywood has visited them.

 

Of course, no trip to Wexford is complete without jump into the car for a drive, to soak up the salty spray of the ocean at one of many viewpoints where you can capture the perfect family photo set against the backdrop of Wexford’s sandy coastline. Wexford has over 250 km of coastline, much of which is made up of beautiful wide-open sandy beaches. Take a tour of the stunning Wexford beaches along the coast of the Sunny South East.
