Maintaining and improving the Laytown / Bettystown Beach, whilst enhancing the area as an attraction for beach-users

Meath County Council appoint a Beach Warden on a seasonal basis to carry out functions associated with the Councils management responsibilities for the Beach.

Meath County Council appoint beach Lifeguards at Bettystown Beach throughout the summer bathing season and generally at weekends in June and during normal daytime hours in July /August .

There is no parking on the beach at Bettystown or Laytown.  There are a small number of Age Friendly and Blue Badge (Disabled) spaces on the beach at Bettystown, which are co-ordinated by the Beach Wardens.  This will be strictly monitored to ensure these spaces are available for those who need them most and fines will issue for noncompliance.

Parking is available at the new Meath County Council Car Park, on the Coast Road beside the Education Campus. It's a short walk to the beach through Brookside Lane.  Exit the car park, turn left towards Bettystown, the laneway is on the right hand side.

Parking is available also at Funtasia, Bettystown, at a cost of €4 per vehicle per day.

If you have a query or wish to make a parking fine appeal, please email environment@meathcoco.ie or phone 046 909 7200.
