Curracloe
Ireland, Ireland
Curracloe Beach is an 11 km stretch of fine golden sand along County Wexford's east coast in Ireland, renowned for its Blue Flag status, gentle surf, and vast dunes protected as a Natural Heritage Area.
Just 15 minutes northeast of Wexford town, it famously served as Omaha Beach for Saving Private Ryan's D-Day scenes in 1997, drawing film fans alongside families for safe summer swimming with lifeguards at White Gap, surfing, and walks through Raven Point Nature Reserve's pine forests where red squirrels and seals roam.
Backed by wildflowers and minimal development, its three main access points—Ballinesker, White Gap, and Colloton's Gap—offer parking, toilets, and picnic spots for relaxed coastal escapes year-round.
