Port Beach

Located a few short miles north of the fishing village of Clogherhead is the expansive unspoilt beach of Port, a secluded sandy beach backed by low dunes. The sand dunes provide a habitat for a wide range of flora and fauna.  The beach stretches for miles with breath taking views of the Mourne Mountains and Louth’s coastline. This Blue Flag Beach (awarded annually) is a popular place for locals and tourists alike; it’s a great spot for families and is ideal for picnics. The presence of a lifeguard during the summer months (check notice boards locally) makes this a popular beach for swimming and walking. Mind you it can get quite busy when the weather is hot.
