This is the southeast view from the beautiful Magheramore Beach showing four offshore wind turbines on the horizon. Blight or not, the Arklow Bank Wind Park is located on a shallow sandbank some 10 kilometres off the coast of Arklow, Co Wicklow and consists of 7 GE Energy 3.6 megawatt turbines. Obviously visible on all but the dreariest of days, this is the only offshore windfarm of it's kind, so far, along the east coast. I wonder what the tourists think?
