Galway Beach Mats Open Access for All | Cork News

from Cork News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Galway’s beaches are getting a major upgrade—new accessible mats at Silverstrand and Ballyloughane are making it easier for wheelchair users, families with strollers, and older visitors to enjoy the sand. Inspired by successful programs in Mayo, this pilot—backed by local groups and councils—is transforming beach access for all, especially for kids like Ruby, whose family now can fully experience seaside fun. With daily management based on tides and weather, the trial runs until August, with hopes of turning it into a permanent, expanded feature across more beaches.
