And Cuan is such a fun place to launch a boat, have a swom or just chill. Hope you will be able to visit there again.

Thank you for your lovely comments. The sand at Ventry Strand is so fine and the beach so long that it is ideal for sandcastles. These events are held each year as part of summer festivities and it is nice to enjoy 'simple' pleasures (although as you can see it is taken very seriously). Your music adds good things to the atmosphere of the images. It is a lovely place if you get ever a chance to visit.

Hey there! Thanks for remixing our music in your video. I enjoyed this video (not just because you used our song!) Pretty educational. Is building sand sculptures part of the Irish tradition? The picture at the 2min mark made me laugh! Thanks for sharing this. Oh, and I appreciate how you took pains to properly credit all the CC content owners.
