About Tragumna

Tragumna is a Blue Flag beach near Skibbereen in West Cork, a small sheltered cove of golden sand tucked into the coast. Lifeguarded in summer with safe, calm swimming, it is a quiet, family-friendly beach popular with locals, with the market town of Skibbereen close by. The sheltered setting and clear water make it a relaxed spot away from the busier West Cork surf beaches.
