About Reen Pier Strand

Reen Pier Strand follows the long gravel spit at Reen Pier in West Cork. Kayaking and boat trips operate around the pier, while recent visitor reports also mention swimming, a coffee stop and limited parking in the wider Reen Pier area. Public access is recorded, although the final approach and usable shoreline can still change with tide, weather and local conditions. Do not assume parking, toilets or lifeguard cover; check tide, weather, water conditions and current local notices before entering the water.
