About Ceann Gainimh

Ceann Gainimh is a natural beach or shoreline feature on the Aran Islands Coast in County Galway. The mapped feature spans about 610 metres and sits 1. 3 kilometres in a straight line from Frenchman's Beach, Inis Mór. The setting requires boat access; confirm permission, landing conditions, weather, tide and a safe return plan before travelling. Treat it as an unserviced natural shore: do not assume parking, toilets or lifeguard cover, and check tide, weather and sea conditions before entering the water.
