DAY TRIPS
Dingle & Slea Head Drive
The quaint little fishing village of Dingle with its brightly coloured shops and pubs is a 50 minute drive from the International Hotel and is a wonderful throwback to this mainly Irish speaking region. It is a mecca for visitors who come to experience its unique culture, colour and flavour along with the magnificent Dingle Peninsula which contains some of Ireland’s most beautiful scenery but also contains a wealth of historic sites such as Dunbeg Fort, Gallarus Oratory and the 6th century Riasc Monastic settlements. Don’t miss the legendary Slea Head Scenic Drive – 26 miles of the most astounding beauty you’ll find anywhere.
Local Knowledge Tips! Make sure to pay a visit to Fungi the bottlenose dolphin who made his permanent home in Dingle over 30 years ago, with regular ‘Fungi Ferries’ traversing the bay for sightings.
Don’t leave Dingle without sampling the best Fish & Chips around with freshly caught local catch arriving in the harbour every day
The Dingle Oceanworld Aquarium is a fun day out for adults and kids alike.
