Castlegregory swim week takes place in Sandy Bay (Béal Geal) which is situated on The Maharees just outside Castlegregory. Sandy Bay is an ideal location for a swim week as it is a blue flag beach along with being a lovely sheltered little Bay.

This is ideal for those who are learning to sea swim and for those looking to improve their ability in the water. The week has become a popular fixture on the calendar for both locals and those who visit every summer.

Tá Baile na nGall suite in Iarthar Duibhneach i gceartlár na Gaeltachta timpeall 10 mhíle siar ón nDaingean. Sráidbhaile beag deas iascaireachta is ea Baile na nGall agus iascairí áitiúla ag iascach amach ón gcuan i gcónaí.

Tá dhá thigh tábhairne ar an mbaile a mheallann na sluaite ó chian is ó chóngar. Sin iad Tigh TP agus Tigh Uí Bheaglaoich.

Is féidir tú féin a thumadh i bhfolcadán feamanaí in ionad Folláine Chorca Dhuibhne. Ar eagla go ndéanfá dearúd ar do thuáille, tá fallaing farraige le ceannach ó Fran, bean na dtuáillí snámha lámhdhéanta.

Tá dhá thráigh ar an mbaile. Tráigh Bheaglaoich agus Tráigh an Chléirigh. I 2021 bhí ranganna snámha ar thráigh Bheaglaoich don gcéad bhabhta riamh. Tá an tráigh seo ana-oiriúnach le haghaidh na ranganna ó thaobh fothaoine taoidí agus a leithéid. Reáchtáiltear na ranganna go hiomlán as Gaolainn agus bíonn bús gaolainne le clos timpeall na háite i gcónaí.

Beidh an Ghaolainn agus an snámh ar do thoil agat agus tú ag fágaint!

Kerry Water Safety swim week first came to Brandon in 1986 and has been running weeks ever since. We have an ideally sheltered location within the Pier and slipway where the children can swim distances from the Pier. The younger children also have the safety of the small beach where they can gain confidence and become strong sea swimmers. Swim and safety weeks have. over the years. become a highlight of the calendar year and both local and visiting families look forward to the event every year . Many children have made great lasting friendships during these weeks having started at swim 1 and finished at Rescue 3 or even instructors and beach lifeguards.
