Bathing Beauties

One great incentive for a trip to Tramore was, and still is, to enjoy the sand and sea. Believe it or not, only for about the past two hundred years have people gone to the seaside in great numbers for recreational purposes.

There were seperate bathing areas for men and women. There were ladies' bathing places on the Cliff Road and also an area known as "Ladies Cove".

Ladies Cove was only used very early in the morning as after ten o'clock there were too many people around and it was not considered private enough.

A promenade was built in 1914 and became very popular with visitors.
