Curracloe Beach

Curracloe Beach is a captivating spot of untouched beauty located along the Irish coast. Stretching from Raven Point to Ballyconigar, there’s so much to see here.

Curracloe, known for its alluring dunes, is a place for both adventure and rest. The beach is protected by the dunes, which also offer a distinctive ecology to discover and a sense of remoteness.

In addition to its natural beauty, Curracloe Beach is well-known for serving as the backdrop for the iconic World War II landing sequences in the motion picture “Saving Private Ryan.” Wexford locals even starred as extras in these scenes!

Thanks to it being a dog-friendly and child-friendly beach, the whole family can look forward to a glorious outing packed with watersports and sunbathing.
