Coornagillagh

Nestled at the shore of Coornagillagh Cove with sweeping views over the Kenmare River, this is one of Beara’s most quietly spectacular spots. Whether the tide is in or out, the bay is perfect for a sea swim and when the clouds part, the sunsets here are simply breathtaking

Allihies

(April - October)

Allihies sits at the wild western tip of the Beara Peninsula, where the Atlantic hits hard and the air is as fresh as it gets in Ireland. After a dip in the crystal-clear waters of Ballydonegan Bay, there’s nothing quite like stepping into our wood-fired sauna to warm through — salt on your skin, heat in your bones, and those sweeping views of the Slieve Miskish mountains stretching out in front of you. It’s one of the most restorative ways to experience this remote, beautiful corner of Cork.

FAQ's

We recommend sessions of 10–15 minutes at a time, followed by a cold dip or cool down. You can repeat this cycle 2–3 times depending on how you feel. Always listen to your body.

Just a towel and a swimsuit. We recommend bringing a water bottle to stay hydrated, and flip flops if you have them. Everything else is taken care of.

If you have a heart condition, high blood pressure, are pregnant, or have any other medical concerns, we strongly recommend consulting your GP before booking. Your safety comes first.

Yes — and we encourage it. The contrast between heat and cold is where a lot of the magic happens. Take a breath, take the plunge, and enjoy the rush.

A swimsuit or swim shorts are perfect. You’ll be moving between the sauna and the sea, so comfortable swimwear is all you need.

Avoid eating a heavy meal in the hour before your session. Arrive hydrated, and try to give yourself time to relax into the experience rather than rushing straight in.

Absolutely. Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, the sauna is for everyone. Take your time, go at your own pace, and don’t feel any pressure to push your limits.

We recommend that the sauna is suitable for ages 16 and over. For younger visitors, please get in touch and we’ll advise based on your situation.

Our barrel saunas comfortably fit 6 people.

A bit of Irish rain never hurt anyone — in fact, it adds to the experience. Sessions go ahead in most weather conditions. In the rare event of severe weather, we’ll be in touch to reschedule.
