Why Dingle matters

Dingle is what many people picture when they dream of Ireland. A bright harbour town at the end of a long peninsula, with more pubs than you can count and music in many of them. Fresh fish is the order of the day, and Irish is still the everyday language in this part of Kerry. Drive or cycle the loop around Slea Head for ocean views and ancient stone huts, then come back to a warm fire. Give it at least two nights.

Talking points

  • It sits in a Gaeltacht area where Irish is still spoken daily.
  • Music sessions happen most nights in the pubs.
  • The Slea Head loop is a signature coastal drive.
