Beara Peninsula (Counties Kerry and Cork)
Though only a few miles south of the more famous Ring of Kerry, the Beara Peninsula is a different world. The peninsula and its main town Castletownbere have not yet been totally discovered by mainstream tourism and retained a rural charm that has been modernized and polished to death in other places.

Dingle Peninsula (County Kerry)
Jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean, the Dingle Peninsula is one of the westernmost areas of Ireland. The Dingle Peninsula as an attraction can be a two-edged sword - wild, deserted and simply breathtaking in many places, commercialized, overcrowded and stifling in others.

Fungi the Dingle Dolphin
Dingle Bay is home to Fungi, a solitary dolphin known for interacting with humans. Unfortunately the dolphin's behavior is not natural and the large amount of activities centering on the one animal seems to be too much at times.

Killarney - An Introduction
Travel writers and the opening of the railway boosted Killarney's influx of visitors even more in the 19th century and Queen Victoria's visit bestowed royal approval on the original Irish holiday destination. Killarney remains one of the top tourist destinations for both Irish and foreign travellers.

Killarney Jaunting Car Tours
If you are visiting Killarney a tour on one of the "jaunting cars", light passenger wagons drawn by a single horse, is almost mandatory. Dozens of "jarveys" offer an extensive tour, lots of knowledge and a decent price. It is, however, a case of "buyer beware".

Musaem Chorca Dhuibne (Ballyferriter, County Kerry)
The Musaem Chorca Dhuibne in Ballyferriter is a local museum in the traditional sense, concentrating on the local history of the Chorca Dhuibne Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking area). But it has been revamped in recent years and follows modern museum practice.

Ring of Kerry (County Kerry)
The Ring of Kerry, a circular tour taking you from Killorglin via Cahersiveen and Kenmare to Killarney, takes in some of the most spectacular landscapes of Ireland's Southwest. But it has been so well publicized that traffic jams are not unknown in Summer. So is it still worth taking this tour?
