Discover Ireland ecoCamping




Our eco Beach Camping & Caravanning Park is situated on the shores of the beautiful 'Wild Atlantic Way' at the estuary of Streamstown Bay. Unique to the  park is an ecosystem called 'Machair', listed as a priority habitat in Ireland under the EU Habitats Directive. 

This is a highly specialized & complex sand dune habitat system that is confined globally to the north West Coast of Ireland & Scotland. It comprises a flat or gently undulating sandy plain that develops in an oceanic location with a cool, moist climate resulting in rich bio-diversity. 

To date eight species of bumblebee occupy this Machair habitat, additionally the ecosystem borders the West Connacht SAC. These are marine habitats which are important for Bottlenose Dolphins that frequent these shores. Seven Natura sites are within a 5 km radius of our campsite with Natura 2000 being a European network of important ecological sites.



The geology along the beaches from the campsite to Omey Island is quite impressive, providing an outstanding opportunity to see what happens deep inside the Earth's crust when magma rises into it & volcanoes erupt at the surface. These rock outcrops are the best examples seen anywhere in Europe & are a listed site.
