Highlights
  • Inch Beach - It is best known for its 5km Blue Flag beach, which stretches across Dingle Bay, taking in the magnificent views of the Dingle Peninsula and Ring of Kerry (Iveragh Peninsula) with the backdrop of the Slieve Mish Mountains and the MacGillycuddy Reeks to the southeast.
  • Dingle - The pretty fishing port of Dingle - Daingin Uí Chúis - nestles on the edge of a large natural estuary on the southwestern coast of the Dingle Peninsula.

On the southern edge of a mountain ridge that separates the east from the western end of the Peninsula, all roads lead through Dingle town. With a population of 2,000 and a large hinterland, this is the hub and commercial centre for the Dingle Peninsula. From the harbor front, colorful buildings and ancient street patterns clamber up the green hilly lowlands of the Brandon mountain range that protectively guards the town from the north.

A creative and imaginative place, Dingle is a town of many charms, known for quality food and restaurants, interesting shops and galleries, a friendly dolphin, and vibrant street life.

  • Slea Head Drive - Slea Head Drive, one of Ireland’s most scenic routes, takes you on a journey through historic sites, Irish-speaking villages, famous Hollywood film locations, with close-up views of the world-renowned Blasket Islands and distant views of the Skellig Islands on the southwestern horizon.

The Slea Head Drive (Slí Cheann Sléibhe) is a circular route, forming part of the Wild Atlantic Way, beginning and ending in Dingle, that takes in a large number of attractions and stunning views on the western end of the Dingle Peninsula.

Travelers are strongly advised to travel clockwise in order to avoid meeting the large tour buses that frequent the route during the summer. Part of the Slea Head cliff road is very narrow and single lane only. The route is suitable for motorists but is also enjoyed by cyclists - bicycles can be hired at a number of locations in Dingle.

  • Conor Pass - Only accessible for cars or mini-vans.

The Conor Pass is one of the highest mountain passes in Ireland and provides the most dramatic and scenic way of crossing from the north to south coast of the Dingle Peninsula. This narrow, twisting road runs for 12kms between the town of Dingle on the south and Kilmore Cross on the north of the peninsula, where roads fork to Cloghane/Brandon or Castlegregory. The views from the road are breathtaking, with a glaciated landscape of mountains, corrie lakes, and a broad sweeping valley spread out below.

  • Dunquin - Dunquin Pier is located in a stunning scenery on a coastal stretch framed by huge cliffs. A narrow road winds its way down to the pier, where the shortest ferry connection to Blasket Islands goes.
