Top Water Activities in Munster

Don’t miss the promenade walk before sunset. The views are stunning, and it’s a peaceful way to end your beach day without spending a dime.

Don’t forget to bring your own towels and beach toys as rentals can be pricey. I paid way more than I expected for just a couple of beach items so bringing your own saves money.

If you’re planning to surf, check the tide times first. The waves can be different based on the tides and it can be frustrating not knowing when the best times to catch waves are.

Bring a light jacket! I didn't expect the wind to pick up in the afternoon. It can get a bit chilly even on sunny days, so be prepared.

My advice is to pack a picnic! The beach cafe can get pricey, and there are some beautiful spots to settle down with your own snacks. I regretted not bringing my own food.

I suggest checking the surf forecast before heading to Ballybunion. I found the waves to be awesome on Wednesday morning around 9 AM, but pretty flat the rest of the week. Saved me from disappointment!
