Yellow blossom on the seashore

Yellow flower blossoming on the seashore in Galway
Here’s a shot that I quite like of an isolated yellow flower that dominates the seashore around Galway throughout the summer. If anybody can help me identify what the name of the flower actually is, it’d be much appreciated!
