About Curracloe
Curracloe is a small, largely rural coastal locality in north-east County Wexford, centred on the village and the extensive Curracloe beach and dune system. It has a quiet, community-oriented feel, with detached homes, farmland and woodland rather than an urban streetscape, while Wexford town is close enough for larger-scale shopping, schools and commuting. The beach is the area’s defining amenity, with long sandy stretches, walking opportunities and access to Raven Point and Curracloe Forest. Local day-to-day life is supported by village services and nearby pubs, cafés and restaurants, while Castlebridge and Wexford provide a wider choice of supermarkets, healthcare and leisure facilities. Curracloe National School serves primary-age children locally, with secondary schools and further education options principally in Wexford town. Road travel is the main transport option: the R742 and connecting local roads link Curracloe with Wexford, Blackwater and the Rosslare area, while Wexford railway station and bus services provide onward connections. The village and its surrounding communities are known for active GAA and sporting life, and the coastline, forest and proximity to the Slaney estuary give the locality particular appeal for outdoor recreation.
