Courtown Beach
Ireland, Ireland
Courtown Beach features two distinct sandy stretches along County Wexford's east coast in Ireland, about 6 km southeast of Gorey, with the larger North Beach holding Blue Flag status for its fine golden sands, gentle slopes, and summer lifeguards ideal for family swimming in sheltered Irish Sea waters.
The narrower southern section near the harbor offers a quieter escape amid coastal protection works and dunes, perfect for walks and picnics, while erosion has shifted main access northward, a historic summer favorite since the 19th-century rail era.
It spans roughly 3 km backed by woodlands, playgrounds, and amenities like toilets, parking, and nearby amusements in the bustling village. Popular for water sports, seal sightings, and serene sunsets, it's easily reached via R742 from Gorey.
