Unfortunately, due to unavailability of personnel, the decision has been taken to close Bonmahon and Ardmore beaches prior to their due end date of the 3rd September to enable us to fulfil the blue flag criteria and maintain cover on the Blue Flag beaches. It is unprecedented that such a number of lifeguards are unavailable on or after the 31st August.
Lifeguard service will cease on the following beaches on dates specified.
ARDMORE: 7 p.m. on Friday 1st September, 2017.
BONMAHON: 7 p.m. on Thursday, 31st August, 2017.
Service will continue on Blue Flag Beaches e.g. (Clonea, Dunmore East, Tramore) on a full time basis until 7 p.m. on Sunday 3rd September, 2017 with weekend cover being provided on the 9th and 10th of September, 2017.
