Lifeguard cover extended at four Clare beaches, ends at others

CLARE County Council has announced that the lifeguard service at four of Clare’s most popular beaches is being extended this year.

Lifeguards at Fanore, Lahinch, Kilkee and Spanish Point will be on duty full-time (11am-7pm, seven days a week) until Sunday, September 12.

In previous years, these beaches were not lifeguarded during weekdays in September and had weekend cover only.

The lifeguard service at Ballyalla, Bishops Quarter and Seafield will close fully today, Tuesday, August 31. There will be no weekday or weekend service at these locations after August 31.

The lifeguard service at Mountshannon, Ballycuggeran Killaloe, Cappa, White Strand Doonbeg and White Strand Miltown Malbay will finish weekday service today, Tuesday, August 31, but will be open for the weekends of September 4-5 and September 11-12 (11am-7pm).

Clare County Council advises that you should always swim at lifeguarded locations. For swimming advice and precautions, please visit the Water Safety Ireland website  https://watersafety.ie/recreation
