About Rinroe

Rinroe is a small Green Coast beach near Carrowteige in the far north-west of Mayo, a sheltered cove of clean sand in a remote and beautiful corner of the Erris coast. There is no lifeguard, so swimming should be taken with care, but the calm water, the dramatic cliffs nearby and the sheer remoteness make it a peaceful, special place to swim or walk.
