About Ballyhealy

Ballyhealy is a Green Coast beach on the south Wexford coast, a wide sandy strand backed by dunes and popular with local families. There is no lifeguard, so swimming should be taken with care, but the long beach and shallow water make it a relaxed spot for walking and a summer dip in the sunny south-east.
