    Ring of Kerry

    May 30, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Today was the day we did the famous scenic drive around the Ring of Kerry. It is regarded as one of the great drives in the world and it was certainly quite spectacular.

    There are expansive views across the coastal farmlands, the Dingle Peninsula and out to the Skellig Islands.

    We had a stop at Watervale, where Charlie Chaplin spent many holidays and also the village of Sneem, plus lots of photo stops along the way.

    After leaving the coastal section of the drive, we headed up through the McGillicuddy Reeks and the Killarney National Park as we made our way back to Killarney.
