The place

About Carrigillihy Bay

Carrigillihy Bay is a quiet, sheltered shingle beach near Union Hall, suited to a short coastal visit and gentle paddling near shore. Badger’s Hole lies about 120 metres away in a straight line; the map treats this 160 metres-wide shore as its own feature. The public approach is not established, so use only lawful routes and do not cross private land without permission. Do not assume parking, toilets or lifeguard cover; check tide, weather, water conditions and current local notices before entering the water.
