Curracloe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Curracloe is a town in County Wexford, a few miles north of Wexford town, Ireland. It is very close to the long and sandy Curracloe Strand. Curracloe sees a huge influx of holiday makers every summer, who stay in mobile homes and caravan parks.

The beach was used for the filming of the D-Day sequence in Saving Private Ryan, due to its proximity to Ardmore Studios and the tax break for film production in Ireland.
