Dingle Ireland, located in the southwestern part of the country in
County Kerry, has long been a favorite among travelers. The breathtaking
Dingle Peninsula spans more than twenty miles of rugged green hills and
golden sandy beaches, and the region's sprawling countryside also
boasts rare prehistoric and early Christian structures and artifacts,
such as stone beehive huts dating from the sixth century. Many
archaeologists, anthropologists, and curious travelers have trekked
through the peninsula's fields and meadows, eager to see ruins on the
Dingle Peninsula that date to the Bronze Age.Although Dingle Peninsula contains several small towns and villages,
Dingle is the main town. Known in Irish as An Daingean, the attractive
port is nestled at the base of the hills in a quiet and sheltered
harbor. Within the streets of the town, visitors will be happy to find a
relaxed, picturesque Irish community.
Absolutely lovely photographs!

DeleteWe're planning a trip to Ireland with another couple and I'm thinking about doing the Dingle Peninsula instead of Kerry. I feel like we'll appreciate the small towns, and smaller crowds and it looks like Dingle is just as breakth-taking as the Ring of Kerry. Your photos are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the location of photograph #15, with the road leading straight down to the water? I want to make sure we go there.
Thanks!!
It's in Great-Blasket island, located 3 miles off the tip of the Dingle Peninsula Gaeltacht, 13 kilometers west of Dingle town. I've never been there but that's the information i got from goggle.
