The place

About Curragh Beach

Curragh Beach is located approximately 2km North-East of the small town of Ardmore and 12 miles from Dungarvan. On the map, this shore is distinct from Ballyquin Beach, 990 metres away in a straight line. The location marker follows the official bathing-area coordinate; always use current local signs for the precise managed section. 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.
