Dugort is a semi-exposed beach break on Achill Island that works year-round but peaks during autumn, particularly in October. It handles both windswell and groundswell with an ideal window when northwest swell pairs with southeasterly wind, which is offshore here. The beach is sandy with dune systems backed by machair grassland, and receives consistent rideable waves suitable for varied skill levels.

It has been designated a Blue Flag beach by An Taisce (the National Trust for Ireland), indicating reliable water quality and amenities. Access is straightforward via paid parking with picnic tables available; there are no toilet facilities. Summer lifeguards are present from June to August. The eircode is F28 NY97.
