About Hole of the Forlorn

Hole of the Forlorn is a natural beach or shoreline pocket on the Kilmore and Ballyteige Coast in County Wexford. Nethertown Beach lies about 1. 4 kilometres away in a straight line; the map treats this 110 metres-wide shore as its own feature. The public approach is not established, so use only lawful routes and do not cross private land without permission. 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.
