Inchydoney is a small island long connected to the mainland by two causeways and is located in the tourist area of west County Cork, Ireland. The nearest town is Clonakilty. It has Blue Flag beach.
In 1584, the island, having escheated to the Crown, was granted by Queen Elizabeth I to the Bishop of Ross. After the Battle of Clonakilty, in 1642, 600 of the Irish forces fled towards the island to take refuge; but with the tide setting in at the time, they were all drowned before they could reach it.
