About Cappagh Beach (Sandy Bay)

Cappagh Beach, also known as Sandy Bay, is a sandy shore at Lower Cappagh on the north side of the Dingle Peninsula. The beach curves around one continuous coastal setting, despite appearing as several small sections on some maps. Visitor themes describe a quiet atmosphere and broad coastal scenery, but facilities and swimming safety are not guaranteed. Check the tide, weather and lawful approach before visiting or entering the water.
