Two eco-friendly toilet units have been installed at Skerries Red Island Playground and will be open to the public from today Friday, 12th of June. A further six eco toilets have been installed at Donabate Beach Car Park and Portrane Beach and will be available for use this weekend.

The introduction of these facilities marks a significant enhancement in public amenities, increasing accessibility and convenience in popular outdoor and coastal areas. Each site includes an accessible toilet unit to ensure usability for all members of the community.

The eco toilet system is a sustainable, off-grid sanitation solution that operates without the need for sewerage or electricity connections. Free from chemicals and designed to be 100% ecological, these units are built to perform reliably in demanding environmental conditions. Their durable construction ensures ease of maintenance while maintaining a high standard of hygiene and service.

This initiative forms part of Fingal County Council’s wider programme of public realm improvements and environmental initiatives. The Council remains committed to creating more sustainable, inclusive, and welcoming public spaces throughout Fingal for all our citizens and visitors.
