Keem Bay Beach

Highlight • Beach

A very nice beach. Very remote. The wind was too strong for swimming.
The beach is made of a very fine sand in a bright yellow tone. Nearly white. The water is very clear and has a turquoise color. Except for the place where the stream flows from the hills into the sea. The water from the hills has a brown color. Probably from the peat.
We decided to go hiking. On the hill to the west is a ruin from an outpost. Who does not bother the effort on hardly recognizable paths to work up, which is rewarded with a very beautiful view over the Atlantic Ocean.
