Clonque

Clonque bay is made up of a stony upper beach with a large rocky area stretching seaward and some sandy areas at low tide.

The beach, which faces west into the RAMSAR designated wetlands site and out to the Burhou island, is ideal for rock pooling. 

The bay is one of the islanders favorite place to enjoy the sunset. Either with a picnic dinner or a take-away, you can enjoy stunning sunsets across the Swinge with the sun disappearing behind Burhou Island. 

Swimming at Clonque is not recommended due to the very strong tides in the area.
