  • Sitting just along the coast from Barley Cove and Chimney Cove on the Mizen Peninsula is the equally pleasant Lackenakea Bay Beach. Largely pebbles at high tide, a lovely stretch of golden sand is revealed as the tide goes out.

    The name of the beach (and bay) comes from the 164 metre (540ft) tall Lackenakea which dominates the northern end of the beach.
