Create an itinerary including Portmarnock Beach

Kick off your shoes at Portmarnock Beach, a narrow beach with notably smooth sand and an active atmosphere. A path along the beach is a favorite for walkers, cyclers, and roller skaters. If you would rather be in the water, try your hand at wind or kite surfing. When the weather gets hot, look for the small shops with ice cream to soothe your cravings. Aviation buffs will appreciate that this was also the starting point for two important flights: one completed a trip around the world in 1930, and the other was the first to complete a solo trip around the world. For Portmarnock Beach and beyond, use our Portmarnock trip maker website to get the most from your Portmarnock vacation.

I love this beach. Needs more bins, less littering but shops across the road are great, ice cream kiosk is legendary and White Sands does fab food. As does Lalis bistro

We stayed at Port Marnock Hotel and took a walk on the beautiful beach below hotel. It is very level and goes for miles. Views of the off shore islands and rainbows abound.

One of the best beaches that I have been too. If you really want the most of it, then I would recommend reaching here early morning. Will be very less crowded in the mornings and you'll find a parking spot easily. There are clean toilets near the car park and a good walk to the beach from there.
