Ennereilly, the pennycomequick one after the beach with the car park, i think you can fish very close to the car from there.
Also, courtown, you can drive onto the sand and be maybe 10 yards from the car.
You are not actually on th beach, more just on th entrance to the beach.(Under the trees)
You could go to the North Beach Wicklow, The murrough, park in the carpark and fish in front of the car, again, you'd be 10 yards from the car.
Hope that helps someway!!

Beach Bye-Laws in Wexford prohibit driving a vehicle on most of the beaches, including Morriscastle and Courtown.
Specifically, the following is prohibited from the beaches:
You can park in the carpark facing the pier at Cahore and fish off the North beach
