Owenahincha Beach

Reviewed By Dina0827 - Baltimore, United States

We found Owenahincha Beach when walking the cliff path from Warren Beach in Rosscarbery. It was a chilly, windy, and rainy day - but we decided to beach walk anyway. So glad we did! Owenahincha is a long-ish beach to traverse. When coming from the Warren Beach Cliff Walk, there is a short distance of road, then you will approach the northeast corner of Owenahincha Beach. Because of the weather, the waves were high, the tide was coming in, and there were a ton of rocks on the beach. It was a great day to run along the water pools, collect rocks, and climb over the larger rock formations. We walked all the way to the end of Owenahincha, then took the path to R598, and continued walking until we came to the Fish Basket which is at the start of Long Strand. The rain had stopped, and the wind had died down enough, so we decided to eat fish and chips outside at the picnic tables for dinner while watching the surfers in the waves at Long Strand. After dinner, we returned to the Warren Beach car park along the same route we had taken earlier. This was a lovely way to spend a rainy evening in Ireland.

Warren Beach

Reviewed By TomasC859 - Trim, Ireland

We found Warren Beach by chance and we weren't disappointed. There was a life guard on duty and the beach was clean. Also there was public toilets and showers beside the beach. It was a nice day when we visited. It was enjoyed by all.
