The place

About Boatstrand Beach and Harbour

Boatstrand Beach and Harbour is located on the South East Coast of County Waterford in the heart of the Copper Coast, about 20 miles from Dungarvan. The mapped shore at the official bathing point is consolidated here; Boatstrand North Beach remains separate across the harbour area. Public access is recorded, but the usable shore and final approach can still change with tide, weather and local conditions. Treat it as unserviced: do not assume parking, toilets or lifeguard cover, and check tide, weather and sea conditions before entering the water.
