Best Hotels Near Dog's Bay Beach Connemara
Dog's Bay near Roundstone in Connemara is one of Ireland's most beautiful beaches, a horseshoe bay of shell sand — composed almost entirely of foraminifera shells rather than quartz — of an extraordinary whiteness that turns the shallow Atlantic water turquoise in a setting more reminiscent of the Caribbean than the West of Ireland. The beach faces northwest, making it spectacular on stormy days as well as calm ones. Hotels near Dog's Bay in Roundstone offer access to this hidden gem and the other extraordinary beaches of the south Connemara coastline.
