About Cadogan's Strand

Cadogan's Strand is a quiet Green Coast beach in West Cork with an adjoining amenity and picnic park, a small sandy cove with a slipway. There is no lifeguard, so swimming should be taken with care, but the sheltered setting and the grassy park behind make it a pleasant, family-friendly spot for a swim and a picnic on the West Cork coast.
