West Cork - Ireland
Aerial footage all around Cork but mainly West Cork.
It's no wonder they call West Cork “A Place Apart”. Nature sets the pace in this beautiful south west corner of Ireland, stretching from the south-coast of Kinsale to three rugged westerly peninsulas reaching into the wild Atlantic: Mizen Head, Sheep’s Head and Beara.
West Cork is the place many head for, leaving city lives behind to play along the long zig-zagging coastline, and walk or ride through peaceful inland woods and valleys. Hundreds of inlets, tiny coves, safe harbours and beaches are just right for long active days in the salty air.
There’s something restorative about the temperate climate and sub-tropical gardens, the tranquil lanes thick with fuchsia and montbretia, the sudden glimpses of water through the trees, the shifting light, and the soft greens, greys and violets of bays and distant mountains.
There’s edge-of-the-world drama too: climbing up to a mountain pass through ever-changing weather, crossing the bridge to the end of Mizen Head with the Atlantic crashing below, or taking the cable car to Dursey Island, one of over a hundred West Cork islands. Seven of these are inhabited, including Ireland’s most southerly community on Cape Clear “the storytellers’ island”, where Irish is spoken as a first language, and there’s an independent way of life.
Beyond Cape Clear, the imposing Fastnet Lighthouse stands on a rock known as Ireland’s tear drop, for emigrants to the new world, this was their last sight of their native land. The whole coast echoes with history, ancient sites, ruined castles, coastal forts, copper mines.
West Cork is both very Irish, and quite cosmopolitan, for many have ‘blown-in’ on the winds and stayed to make this beautiful place their home. There’s a strong creative community here.… It’s A Place Apart.
Places featured in this video include the following; Roaringwater Bay, Galley Head, Baltimore, Audley Cove, Mizen Head Lighthouse, Heir Island, Ballydehob, Sherkin Island, The Shakey Bridge, Sundays Well, Three Castle Head, Dursey Cable Car, Bantry House, Long Island, Castle Freke, River Ilen, Glandore, Kinsale, Kilcoe Castle, Liss Ard, Schull, Skeam Island.

Oyster fishing in Clew Bay in County Mayo, Ireland
Dredging for native oysters (Ostrea Edulis) in Clew Bay, County Mayo, Ireland.
The natural native flat oyster beds in Clew Bay are of both national and international importance. They are self-seeding and are one of only nine such natural oyster beds in the country.
With the exception of a privately owned bed at Collenmore Island, the Clew Bay Oyster Co-operative Society Ltd. has managed the native oyster beds in Clew Bay for the past 24 years.
The Co-op. was granted an Oyster Fishery Order in 1979 and since then has managed the fishing season in November to protect the oyster stocks.
