Two were deemed Poor – Front Strand Beach in Balbriggan in Dublin and Lady’s Bay, Buncrana in County Donegal.

But 115 were Excellent, up 4 from 2020 and 12 of them are closest to us including local favourites Tramore, Rosslare Strand, Carne and Courtown.

Nine were listed as Sufficient, including Duncannon.
