About the town

Newcastle

Newcastle is a small coastal village on the east Wicklow coast, positioned between Wicklow Town to the south and Greystones to the north. The village sits close to the Murrough, a long stretch of shingle beach and wetland habitat that runs along the coast between Newcastle and Wicklow Town. The Murrough is a protected area that supports a range of birdlife and offers quiet walking away from busier coastal spots. The village has a relaxed, residential character and is less visited than Wicklow Town or Kilcoole.
