Hi Paul,
I have been told by a fella in our club who lives in Arklow that the access is off limits to the public.
You need to go through the caravan park and without an "electronic key" for the gate you can't get in.

He did tell me that if a group of responsible anglers were to approach the owner for say a club compo then maybe he would be agreeable.

Otherwise you can park at the entrance to the caravan park and walk from there . . .which I couldnt be bothered doing myself.

Hope this helps!??

Paul,

The last time we fished it the gate was open...I think he leaves it open during the close season ie winter.I have not heard any reports from there lately...Sorry !!!
