Dingle town & peninsula, Ireland
Also, watch our new movie about the shops and pubs of Dingle,
We've been exploring the West Coast of Ireland and now we’re visiting Dingle which some people would say is the finest destination in the country. Dingle is a lush green peninsula extending out into the Atlantic Ocean.
Entering the Dingle Peninsula and passing through villages of Blennerville, Camp and Annascaul.
We stop by the roadside for a lovely view looking down towards the coast and across the green fields.
Next stop, Dingle, our home base for the next couple days. The town is one of Ireland's best with excellent hotels, of course many pubs, and in recent years, Dingle has become one of the gourmet capitals of the country with many fine restaurants. We will be taking you inside a couple of them. The drive in gave us a nice overview and will be taking you on several walks through town.
Most visitors find the real attraction is the surrounding areas with the beautiful countryside and the historic sites. With a few minute’s drive, you are at the edge of town and beyond that, you're in the countryside almost immediately.
So we hop in our van and do a tour of the peninsula. It's not unusual to run into some rain when you're out here in the far tip of Europe, in the Atlantic Ocean. And we had some rain this morning, but it cleared up a little bit during the day.
Dingle is a peninsula sticking into the sea at the western edge of Europe, set amid wild green scenery surrounded by the ocean.
One of the main historic sites you'll see is Dunbeg Fort. It's quite typical of the Celtic fortresses of the Iron Age in Ireland. It's built right up against the edge of a cliff, so it's easy to defend itself with the big walls on one side and the sea cliff on the other.

Dingle Peninsula, Ireland
Also, watch our new movie about the shops and pubs of Dingle:
We are at the western edge of Europe visiting Dingle on the Atlantic coast of Ireland. We are taking a drive out into the countryside to the Slea Head panoramic loop with marvelous scenery, lots of green hills, sheep, stone walls and archaeological sites. This is some of the best scenery in Ireland if not the world.
Dingle is out on the peninsula a little bit hard to get to and yet it's one of the nicest places in Ireland - it's got the urban charm of the town but it's a small town, and has beautiful natural countryside we explore in this episode.
Most visitors find the real attraction is the surrounding areas with the beautiful countryside and the historic sites, with a few minute’s drive you’re at the edge of town and in the countryside almost immediately. Driving from Dingle out around the peninsula and back again is just about 25 miles so you can easily do it in half a day while stopping to look at the sites. We're lucky that some of Ireland's prehistory is still quite visible with stone structures that have survived for thousands of years. The :beehive hut” stone domes site was occupied until about 1200 A.D. by which time it had evolved into a farmstead for an extended family with the habitation site and with the corrals and room for livestock farm buildings and storage places.

Dingle Bay ----- Paddy Day + Lyrics Underneath

The sun is sinking twards the westward
The fleet is leaving Dingle shore
I watch the men row in their curraghs
As they mark the fishing grounds near Scellig Mor
All through the night men toil until the daybreak
while at home their wives and sweethearts kneel and pray
That God may guard them and protect them
and send them safely back to Dingle Bay
I see the green Isle of Valencia
I mind the days around Lough Lein
And The gannets swinging with abandon
As they watch the silver store that comes their way
I also see a ship on the horizon
She is sailing to a country far away
on board are exiles feeling lonely
As they wave a fond farewell to Dingle Bay
Now years have passed since I came homeward
And time has left me old and grey
I sit and muse about my childhood
And the happy hours I spent at Dingle Bay
In memory too I see the hill of brandon
And the Isle of Inishmore seems far away
I am always dreaming of my homeland
And that little spot I left at Dingle Bay
DINGLE: OUR FAVOURITE TOWN SO FAR - IRELAND ROAD TRIP
Next on our Ireland road trip, we visit the Dingle Peninsula and take you with us on a drive along the beautiful Slea Head loop. The Wild Atlantic Way is one of the most stunning coasts we've ever seen during our travels! We had some great weather and were able to see as far as the Skellig and Blasket islands which we couldn't see on our first drive because of the fog. We didn't cover all of the Dingle Peninsula but the town is so cute and we enjoyed a beer at Dick Mack's pub before making our way to make new friends in Limerick.
