Copper Coast Geopark is an outdoor museum of geological records; it stretches along the coast from Kilfarassy Beach, near Fenor in the east to Ballyvoyle Beach, near Stradbally to the west with Bonmahon in the heart of it all. Volcanoes, oceans, deserts and ice sheets all combined to create the rocks which provide the physical foundation of the natural & cultural landscapes of the area.

Here you can visit a unique mining and geoheritage exhibition, learn more about the area, or relax within a painstakingly resorted heritage building.
