The place

About Stoney Beach, South Ring

Stoney Beach is a small sand-and-stone cove at South Ring, on the eastern side of Clonakilty Bay. Aerial imagery shows a pale shore tucked between rocky reefs, with a lane running close to the coast. Exact public access, parking, facilities and bathing conditions have not been verified, and there is no matching Google review page, so it is best treated as a mapped natural shore rather than a serviced beach.
