BERTRA BEACH WORLD SAND DUNE DAY EVENT – POSTPONED DUE TO YELLOW WEATHER WARNING 

We are disappointed to announce that due to adverse weather conditions forecast for Saturday June 25th, we have taken the decision to postpone the family event on Bertra Beach for World Sand Dune Day to ensure safety of our participants. We apologize for any disappointment caused.

On June 25th, Leave No Trace Ireland and Helly Hansen are celebrating World Sand Dune Day by heading to Bertra Beach to learn more about our coast and how to protect it.

This fun-filled Family Day Out will have something for everyone, from Seashore Safaris, Competitions, refreshments and Leave No Trace workshops.

Family Sand Dune Building Competition (12pm – 1pm):

A sand castle competition with a twist, because building a sand castle is great fun, but building a sand dune to protect it? Even better!

Build your own beautiful sand castle, then using sand and seaweed, build your own sand dune to protect it from the elements. A creative and fun way to learn about the importance of our sand dunes, with prizes to win too!
