Unbelievable views of lovely Dingle Bay and sheep to accompany you along the 30-minute climb! Wear washable shoes as you’ll need to clean them with a hose (provided by gate keeper Mary) after walking in sheep droppings!

A scenic stretch of land surrounded by rugged coastline.
Talk about 'WOW'! The drive up heading north/south was steady and pleasant and then we got to the pass itself which is indeed narrow and right on the cliff edge! My friend who was driving loved it and the challenge - I just looked right away from the sheer drop alongside us! Completely worth it though of course because as soon as we reached the car park at the summit of the road path, the views back across the valley were quite simply breathtaking! Then a pleasantly steady descent down into Dingle to steady the nerves!!

Scenic drive from Dingle Town to the Dingle Peninsula and back.
Loved this area, along with Connemara, our favourites of a week's driving tour. As a big Ryan's Daughter fan, I was thrilled to visit, again after 25 years, this area made famous in the film.Some wonderful coastal views, all feels more open and quieter than the R of K, much shorter of course. Glad we made the 2 hour + journey from St Finan's Bay to enjoy it all again. Some fine archaeological sites too. Highlight is the small spectacular beach of Dunquin. Last time, we also got over to Great Blasket island, a fine trip in itself.

A large aquarium filled with countless species of marine life.
Who doesn't love an aquarium? I've been to a good few of them at this stage and this is up there as a really good one. Great for families or anyone looking for an interesting hour or so.

Ancient church built over 1,000 years ago.
Amazing original, 7th-century oratory. No mortar was used to construct it; the stones are perfectly fitted together to create the dry and solid structure that has stood the test of time. The area is very peaceful and away from towns. A parking lot and a small visitors' center welcome guests before they proceed along the walkway to the oratory. With only one window and one doorway, the cosy inside of the oratory is rather dark and free from distractions outside, perfect for someone praying inside 1,400 years ago. If you are in this area of Ireland, this is a spot you should consider adding to your itinerary. It's not every day we can enter a 6th century building that is in such fabulous condition.

It was late In the day. We’d just come from the Gallarus Oratory, and we decided to fin the Kilmalkedar Church in the recommendation of a woman at a gift shop some 20 miles back. It was quite a moment, being there late in the day. No commercial solicitation. Alone entirely. Sun setting low in The sky over the ocean and Mountains. The ogham stone, sun dial, old Large cross, and Latin lettered stone (inside the structure) are remarkable, some dating back to 600 AD. It was a most solemn experience. Beautiful.

St James' Church, Dingle with its adjacent graveyard, is situated on some 2 acres of sloping ground, on the north east side of the Main Street of Dingle town in County Kerry, Ireland. It is a living church, a constituent member of the worldwide Anglican Communion and a member of the Tralee and Dingle Union of Parishes. People of all ages, nationalities and faiths are welcome to visit or attend Sunday service which is in accordance with the Church of Ireland tradition. Throughout the year, St James' Church also hosts a programme of diverse cultural from traditional music to concerts to exhibitions, lectures and films. Many famous artists have performed here especially during the annual recording of RTE Other Voices TV series. Planning permission has been granted for restoration works which will see this historic building and graveyard preserved and enhanced as a valuable community resource in the 21st century. The Friends of St James' are actively fundraising for this.
When in Dingle, don’t miss the concert series produced by Eoin Duignan. In season, it’s on 3 times/week, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, early evening at the St. James Church. The night we attended, the musicians were profesionnal - top notch, with Eoin himself on the pipes, Jon Sanders on the guitar and a duet of sisters from the Blasket Islands singing traditional melodies. It was a special treat. You can buy tickets at various venues in town and they post announcements in the windows of shops such as Dingle Record Shop on Green Street so you know what musician is featured in the upcoming concert.

Went to this tour and tasting along with my girlfriend. It’s different from others we’ve been to as this distillery makes gin, vodka and whiskey. We got to sample some whiskey almost right away and then our guide David took us for a tour in the distillery to show us the steps in the process of making whiskey. You can tell that David is really passionate about making these spirits and his enthusiasm is contagious. The way he talked about the drinks they produce reveals that Dingle Distillery is really proud of what they’re doing, as they should be. In the end we tasted vodka and gin which was way better than i thought it would be. Would recommend this tasting to anyone!
