Rush North Beach is one of North County Dublin's most scenic coastal destinations, offering a peaceful stretch of golden sand along the northern side of the seaside town of Rush. Located at The Burrow and extending northwards from Rush Harbour, the beach combines natural beauty with a distinctive maritime atmosphere that reflects the town's long connection with the sea.
Unlike Rush South Beach, which is known for its extensive dune system and proximity to the Rogerstown Estuary, North Beach is closely linked to the harbour and fishing heritage of the town. The harbour forms the southern gateway to the beach, and visitors can often watch fishing boats coming and going while enjoying views across the Irish Sea.
The beach itself stretches for over a kilometre and provides ample space for walking, beachcombing, and simply enjoying the fresh coastal air. At low tide, the shoreline opens out into a broad expanse of sand, making it particularly popular with walkers. Throughout the year, visitors are treated to changing seascapes, dramatic skies, and the calming sound of waves along the shore.
Whether visiting for a leisurely stroll, a family outing, or simply to experience one of Dublin's most attractive coastal locations, Rush North Beach offers a relaxing escape where the sea, sand, and harbour come together to create a memorable seaside experience.
