The best beaches to visit on your Summer Staycation would have to be Dogs Bay in Roundstone. This beach is one of the nicest beaches in Connemara, with its white soft sand and crystal blue water, it's definitely a firm favourite. Another stunning beach would have to be the Coral Strand which is located on the main road towards Ballyconneely. This beach has lovely coral sand and stunning water. Both of these beaches have free car parking available and are perfect for swimming in.
