About Dead Man's Beach

Dead Man's Beach is a sand beach or shoreline feature on the Galway Bay Urban Coast in County Galway. On the map, this 210 metres-wide shore is distinct from Ballyloughane Beach, 1. 1 kilometres away in a straight line. Public access is recorded, but the usable shore and final approach can still change with tide, weather and local conditions. 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.
