Carne Beach
Features
Carne beach is a sandy beach in south east County Wexford, Ireland.
The beach may be a good filming location for beach scenes or coastal scenes. The beach has soft sand and a particularly pleasant curved shape. Its shape should allow for shots with dramatic depth that show the entire beach at once. Behind the beach is an area of grassy dunes. These dunes are around 50m wide and separate the beach from a holiday home park.
Carne Pier sits at the south end of the beach and makes a visually interesting backdrop to the beach. Past the pier is another sandy beach protected by rock armour and littered with large boulders. This rocky landscape should give filmmakers more coastal location options. The location has a Blue Flag Award which means that it is recognized for its water quality and good management. A concrete ramp leads from the car park to the beach, but other paths cut through the dunes from the road.
