Nestled by Smerwick Harbour in the village of Ballyferriter on the Dingle Peninsula, Béal Bán Beach is a long, sandy beach ideal for families and nature lovers.
Its name means White Mouth, reflecting the pale sands and gentle waves that make it perfect for paddling, walking, and relaxing. Backed by dunes and surrounded by stunning views of Mount Brandon and Smerwick Harbour, it’s a peaceful spot for picnics and seaside play. Its natural beauty and quiet charm make it a lovely escape on the West Kerry coast. Béal Bán is also known for its annual horse and pony races on the beach.
