The Ballacash Bank is a sand bank Northeast of the Point of Ayre, Isle of Man.

The currents around the Point of Ayre have, over the millennia formed a series banks stretching out to the east which, it is advised, should be avoided especially in heavy weather when the seas break over them. The Ballacash Bank extends for approximately {{convert|3|mi|nmi km|abbr=on}} east-south-east from a position {{convert|3.7|mi|nmi km|abbr=on}} northeast of the Point of Ayre. It is steep on both sides and has a least depth of {{convert|2.3|m|ft|abbr=on}}.

The bank is denoted on maritime charts and marked with the West Cardinal Buoy at position {{coord|54|25.59|N|4|13.59|W|region:GB}}.[1][1] The buoy is yellow in colour with a black horizontal band. It is fitted with a light which operates a quick group flash of nine every 10 seconds.[2]

Other notable sandbars and banks in the area are the Bahama Bank, the King William Banks, the Strunakill Bank and the Whitestone Bank.
