1. Keem Beach

    A horseshoe bay on Achill Island where nearly white sand meets impossibly blue water beneath towering cliffs, Keem Beach remains undeveloped and serene along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way. The drive there winds through sheep-dotted pasture with panoramic coastal views; the summer swimming is calm and clean.
