More info

Iveragh is famous for the “Ring of Kerry” which is a 111 mile circuit of the peninsula. Although an absolutely fabulous road trip with stunning locations and vistas, I personally don’t find it makes for a good day out with the camera. Over the years I’ve discovered so many other interesting places and superb locations that are to be found not far from the Ring of Kerry, by following the narrower roads and lanes that wind their way about the peninsula. Sometimes they are dead ends, running up and into a remote valley or meandering down towards the ocean where they lead to a small cove or a sandy beach.

What to bring
