Beaches with toilets in Ireland
Beaches in Ireland with public toilets, as recorded by the monitoring body or mapped by OpenStreetMap contributors.
Toilet facilities recorded for these beaches. In Ireland this comes from the Environmental Protection Agency's own beach records; elsewhere it comes from OpenStreetMap and is reported with the distance to the nearest mapped facility, because proximity is not the same as presence.
Many are seasonal and locked outside the bathing season.
149 spots, grouped by county. Each shows its current swim status — an award or a classification is not the same as today’s water.

Common questions
- How many beaches with toilets are there in Ireland?
- 149 — this page lists all of them, grouped by area, with each one's current swim status.
- What does this mean?
- Toilet facilities recorded for these beaches. In Ireland this comes from the Environmental Protection Agency's own beach records; elsewhere it comes from OpenStreetMap and is reported with the distance to the nearest mapped facility, because proximity is not the same as presence.
- Can I swim at all of these right now?
- No. 8 of these 149 spots are currently flagged, including 1 under an active do-not-swim notice. A rating or an award describes a past assessment; the status on each spot page is today's. Neither is a safety clearance — bathing-water monitoring covers bacterial quality only, and says nothing about tides, currents, swell or cold-water shock.
- Which areas of Ireland have the most?
- Mayo (21), Dublin (18), Donegal (17). They are spread across 18 areas in total.
