Loughshinny is a small, attractive family beach nestling between a harbour at one end and cliffs at the other.

This looks like an old fishing village and there is a small car park just before the harbour.

While the beach is smallish it is well protected. The water is clear and shallow, so it’s a good place for kids to splash around. A nice place for families to visit on a good summers day.

The beach itself is accessible from the car park.

Lifeguards are on duty during the summer months.
