She chose a matching two-piece with a turtleneck for swimming, wading into the water until the waves lapped her thighs.
The ITV presenter swept her blonde hair over her shoulders and added a pair of sunglasses to complete her look.
Earlier in the trip, Josie was seen with friends in Westport, Co May, ordering a Guinness at the bar.
later the group proved their love for Ireland’s most famous beer by posing with a frothy stout in a pub.
Later that day, Josie looked happy as she moved on to an Espresso Martini.
Mum-of-one Josie is enjoying a short break in the weeks after she was snapped holding hands with Stephen Mulhern backstage at Saturday Night Takeaway.
The TV stars fueled speculation their long-term working relationship had turned romantic with the cute display, which also saw them deep in conversation at the ITV studios.
Since then, the pair have been subjected to massive amounts of criticism from their fellow on-air broadcasters.
Applause back
Last week, Josie applauded This Morning host Ben Shephard as they discussed her “boyfriend”.
Ben pointed to the doll during her outdoor segment about camping gear and asked, “What’s that over your right shoulder?”

Josie introduced the doll as “her new boyfriend” and then said: “He has more personality than the last one.”
“Don’t tell Stephen Mulhern… he’ll be furious!” Ben laughed, quickly starting a gossip.
Josie kept her cool as she parried the blow and said, “You two are so mean!”
Breaking the silence
The previous day, comedian and magician Stephen was the subject of similar jokes on the ITV daytime series.
He broke his silence on the romantic claims when he appeared on the set of This Morning and looked particularly interested in the part of the studio set up for the technology segment.
This prompts Ben – stirring the pot again – to take a cheeky swing, claiming that Stephen is acting at home because he’s “with one of our own”.
Stephen coolly laughed at the comment and told Ben to “shut up” before the show went to break.
