Wexford has more sunshine than any other county in Ireland, with a 250km coastline with lots of sandy beaches. Local Ballyhealy Beach is a Green Coast award winner for water quality, with views to the Saltee Islands and Kilmore Quay. Nearby beaches include St Helen's, Ballytrent, Rosslare Strand and Curracloe (forest walk to Raven Point, setting for the film "Saving Private Ryan"). Duncannon beach allows driving onto the sand, popular with wheelchair users, and hosts a Summer Festival which often features a Sand Sculpting competition. In Kilmore Quay and at several other Wexford beaches, wheelchair users can hire a beach wheelchair free of charge.
