The place

About White Strand, Miltown Malbay

White Strand at Miltown Malbay is a small sandy beach at the end of a narrow, rock-flanked bay. Offshore reefs reduce some wave energy before it reaches the shore, and the official profile records varied marine life. Visitor comments often mention the surrounding cliffs, cliff walk and occasional dolphin sightings. Follow current beach notices and seasonal by-laws, and check tide, weather and lifeguard arrangements before entering the water.
