After some leisurely time we will head back to our hotel where we can look forward to our evening meal.

Today we will explore the quieter corner of Ireland known as the Beara Peninsula. It is a stunning peninsula and home to many gorgeous towns and villages. We will make a stop at the fishing port of Castletownbere where we will have time to explore and make use of the bars, restaurants and cafes.
We will then move on towards the quiet little town of Glengarriff where we will have free time at leisure. Here you can avail of an optional visit to the beautiful Garnish Island. It is the perfect place or picnics, and boasts beautiful walks, gardens, or a cafe for those wishing to relax and enjoy the views.
Maureen O’Hara was one of Glengarriff’s most famous residents, and the island was part of the stunning landscape she adored.

Today’s tour is subject to weather conditions. We may have to swap the days around so that we do not miss the best possible views.
