Peel Bay Beach
Peel Bay Beach is the main beach of Peel, a large sandy city beach backed by a promenade. On one side you have Peel Castle and Peel Harbour whilst on the other red sandstone cliffs. The beach is a gently sloping beach and has some protection from the Peel Breakwater that also offers some good fishing opportunities. You do need to be careful when swimming to keep away from the harbour areas.
Peel is west facing and is often referred to as Isle of Man’s Sunset City after the spectacular sunsets that can be seen.
Plenty of facilities as the beach is with the city of Peel and benefits from many cafes, pubs, ice-cream parlours and shops. Car parking is easy with many options in the city or the Fenella Beach car park which is just over the swing bridge by Peel Castle.
Dog Friendly Beach?
Peel Bay beach does not allow dogs between 10 am and 7 pm during the Summer season of 1st April to 30th September.
