YOUR LOCAL HOLIDAY GUIDE
Things to do in Youghal
Inside the Clock Gate Tower
A guided visit tells the story of a building that has served different roles in Youghal's past. Book a suitable tour and consider the stairs before choosing it for everyone in the group. Allow time for the stories as well as the view.
St Mary's and the older town
Pair St Mary's Collegiate Church with a walk around the historic streets. Leave time for the setting and interpretation, and respect services or other activities taking place at the church.
Beach and boardwalk
The coastal boardwalk links the beach areas towards Redbarn, giving an alternative to walking entirely on the sand. Choose a manageable section for the day and identify where you will return, with the wider beach available when conditions suit.
Local shops, food & places to browse
For a local food stop, the Red Store on North Main Street occupies a converted grain store opposite the Raleigh Quarter. The Mall has another café setting. Combine a town visit with a meal rather than assuming all beach approaches have the same nearby services.
Planning your holiday in Youghal
The old town's historical visits and a longer beach walk work best as separate parts of the holiday. Pack for the coast and make any timed tower booking before deciding how much else to add.
Choosing where to stay
Choose a listing by its actual Youghal address and route to your preferred beach. A general County Cork location can be a very different base, even when its advert mentions the town as a place to visit.
Before you book, check the advert’s address, sleeping arrangements, park facilities and any extra charges with the owner. Use the search filters for features such as decking, a hot tub or a washing machine, and park facilities such as a pool or clubhouse.
