“Public swimming areas, separating zone for men and women”

Guillamene Swimming Cove is a swimming place for Irish people.  There are two places: Newtown and Guillamene. 

Newtown and Guillamene are side by side and this is where 'real swimmers' from Tramore and beyond come to socialise and swim.

Newtown is a small sheltered cove and traditionally this was where the 'ladies' used come to swim, while Guillamene on the other side is for the men. 

The level of sea water here is pretty deep but clear. There is good access via ladders and a slipway along the side. Young people dive in all the time but there is a warning sign SO DO TAKE CARE.  Watch out yourselves.

When we were there in August a few jellyfish were lurking, but otherwise this is just a great swimming spot. From the pictures and what I saw, wheelchair access is possible from the carparking down to the concete path.

There is a large car park and basic toilets. A couple of seats and picnic tables overlook the sea. Unless you visit here for swimming, you may choose to enjoy the scenery view of the ocean.
