North Harbour Beach, nestled on the wild and beautiful Cape Clear Island, is a destination for those truly seeking to disconnect. Your journey begins with a scenic ferry ride, setting the tone for an island experience where time seems to slow down. Upon arrival, a short walk brings you to this charming cove, a haven of calm amidst the rugged Atlantic.
“Its remote island location, accessible only by ferry, offers an unparalleled sense of escape and tranquility.”

The beach itself is a mosaic of smooth, sea-worn pebbles, polished by countless tides. The water here is remarkably clear, inviting you for a refreshing dip in its cool embrace. Because of its island location, the beach often feels wonderfully secluded, offering a profound sense of peace and privacy. You might find yourself sharing the shore with only a few other visitors, or perhaps just the local gulls.
This isn't a beach for high-energy activities, but rather for quiet contemplation, reading a book, or simply watching the boats bob gently in the harbour. It’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the unique rhythm of island life, to breathe in the salty air, and to let the gentle sounds of the sea wash over you. North Harbour Beach is a true island retreat.
