Air the bikini, we’re skipping school and saving this Tripadvisor list of Ireland’s ten most beautiful beaches to our phones.

County Kerry did pretty well in the rankings and scored second, third, fifth and sixth place. Tripadvisor also recommended visiting these beautiful beaches from March to October, so that’s another reason to look forward to the passing of time.
