Gansey Beach
Bay ny Carrickey
This long sandy beach is the perfect summer dipping spot. Best enjoyed at low tide, there is plenty of space for swimming and post-dip picnics galore! Family and dog friendly with close access and ample parking along the road available. A popular water-sports and surfing spot in the winter.
Fenella Beach
Peel
This small sheltered beach is our favourite for sunset dips! Overlooked by Peel Castle, this beach is a mixture of sand and shell. The beautiful turquoise waters make it irresistible for a little swim on a warm summer's day. Easy and nearby parking in the Fenella car park makes this accessible to all, and it's only a short five minute walk to pick up an ice-cream!!
Port Erin Beach
Purt Çhiarn
Sheltered by Bradda head, Port Erin beach stretches half a Kilometre long. It's iconic golden-white sand, beach huts and excellent water quality make this a popular spot for swimming and watersports. Live music is often heard in the summer months, a perfect combination with a pizza and pint from the local bars and restaurants. There is a swimming raft installed, and marked buoys for open water swimmers. Equipment such as kayaks and paddleboards is available to rent from the shop on the seafront.
The White Beach
Traie Vane
Just a short walk from Niarbyl beach, the White Beach offers picturesque views of the South coast of the island. It's small quartz pebbles give this beach its iconic name. Don't forget to keep your eyes peeled for cowrie shells!
