FAIL: Bettystown

Apparently there is a wreck on the beach in Bettystown, County Meath, so I went looking for it this evening after work. It stays bright that little bit later.

Anyway, I spent some time on the beach and the tide was about mid-level I guess. I couldn’t see the wreck anywhere which would suggest to me it’s a far distance down the beach and involved a walk which I just couldn’t do today. Although I took a few photographs not of wrecks, it was a bit disappointing, because I would like to have looked at it and got a feel for what I want to do with that wreck.

All was not lost though; I stopped in Balbriggan on the way home.

    here is a linked to where the ship wreck is, http://kitingireland.com/Bettystown.html
    it could be seen at low tide this weekend
    i hit the bloody thing body dragging to get my board back…

    if you walk down to the Mornington Wall, where the Boyne river meets the Irish Sea, you will see another ship wreck on the other side of the Boyne river, on Termonfeckin beach (go to Drogheda, follow Baltray direction etc)

    To see both you need to go at low tide
