Summer planning? Seven gorgeous beachy spots to visit in Ireland

Sometimes all you need is a trip to the beach with a good book, some friends and an ice cream dripping off the cone.If you are craving that getaway feel look no further as Ireland is home to some surprisingly white sandy beaches and some beautiful turquoise waters.Photo by @lauramullettstylistLocated on the Raven Nature Reserve, this 11-kilometre stretch of golden sand has been home to the lovely Irish families of Wexford for generations.

With its soft sand and incredible views of Howth Head, Ireland’s Eye and Lambay islands and the boats and yachts sliding past on the Irish Sea this beach is ideal for a family day out.If you are familiar with the myth of Tír na nÓg then you may be familiar with this beach. Located on the Ring of Kerry this beach allows for some breathtaking views. If the tide is right you can even walk out to the tip which almost touches Inch Strand on the other side of the channel giving that isolated feeling or the impression that you are completely encircled by sand, sea, sky and mountains.With a backdrop of mountains accompanied by beautiful sand dunes this two-mile stretch of sand is rarely busy.

Complete with limestone cliffs, caves and sea-sculpted rocks why not head here to watch some surfers ride the waves if you are lucky you may even see some hunting hawks.Already famous for its tall sea cliffs and clean beaches alongside its breezy shoreline, Achill Island is also home to Keem Bay.
