Known for its beaches, panoramic cliff walks and surrounding wildlife, Ballybunion offers breathtaking views out over Loop Head and the Virgin Rock.

Chill out and soak up the sun on Ballybunion’s most popular beaches: “Men’s Beach” and “Ladies’ Beach.” Once separated based on social norms, as their names suggest, the beaches remain partitioned by a cliff which is home to the ruins of Ballybunion Castle. Or venture up the steep track to the Nun’s Beach, a beautiful beach that is overlooked by an old convent.
