A new 19 million euro project will see all-weather changing and showering facilities built at 22 beaches and water-based activity areas around the country.

The facilities will also include lockers for personal belongings as well as induction areas for water sports, while they will all be wheelchair accessible.

Launched by Minister Catherine Martin this morning, it's aimed at extending the Summer season beyond the traditional months.

There will be a small fee for the use of hot showers.
