Johanna Beach — Hotel in Glenaire

We stayed at Johanna over Easter and our site was well grassed and the scenery very spectacular although as others have said the beach is very rough and not suitable for swimming.

Like bad enough to have to move sites, clean out van and have a very irritated sleep. So take the fly spray and insect repellent for a nicer time cause the camp spot of beautiful.
