This year, again, the festivities will be based in Arklow for those who want to make a night of it or as a lot of us do now a weekend of it. The main hotel will be Arklow Bay Hotel where it will all be happening, from Breakfast before the dip, to buses leaving to the dip and that evening we will be hosting a huge knees up and disco and we will dance and party the night away in true warrior woman style

Accommodation around Arklow will get scarce so its time to get inventive if you want to stay down.  Camping, Caravan Parks, Hostels, B&Bs, Glamping… you can book anywhere in Gorey, Wicklow etc and get a taxi from the festivities home.
