Tripadvisor have named Ireland’s top 10 beaches

Carl Kinsella

Life’s a beach.

Living in Ireland can be a bit cruel sometimes. After all, we’re home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world – and thanks to the tininess of our Ireland, it’s hard to ever be all that far from the coast.

The only downside is that it’s pretty much always either too cold or too rainy to ever go to the beach.

Nevertheless, TripAdvisor have released their verdict on the 10 best beaches in Ireland, and Inchydoney beach in Clonakilty, Co. Cork has come out on top.

Munster took all three top spots with second place going to Derrynane beach in Co. Kerry and third place going to Inch beach, also in Kerry.

Here’s the full list:

1. Inchydoney beach, Co. Cork

2. Derrynane beach, Co. Kerry

3. Inch beach, Co. Kerry

4. Lahinch beach, Co. Clare

5. Rossbeigh beach, Co. Kerry

6. Banna Strand, Co. Kerry

7. Maghera beach and caves, Co. Donegal

8. Curracloe beach, Co. Wexford

9. Renvyle beach, Co. Galway

10. Portmarnock beach, Co. Dublin
