People in Galway City are being advised to take care near the coastline this week due to a High Tide Advisory Warning.
Met Éireann has advised that Highest Astronomical Tide levels are forecast to be approached or exceeded along all coasts.
This is due to a combination of forecasted storm surge, tidal prediction and wave action.
This warning is now in effect and will be in place until 11pm on Thursday night.
The city council is advising people to take care along the coast due to a significant risk of wave overtopping this week.
Motorists are advised to exercise extreme caution when parking near coastal areas.
Access to Toft Car Park in Salthill is restricted during the period of the high tide advisory.
