A fabulous view of the Blasket Islands and Dunmore Head from Slea Head. In good weather, the view is simply dreamy. You are going to want to stay here forever.

Well, not exactly the westernmost point, but close. Beautiful views of the Atlantic and the Blasket Islands.
Attention: As often very narrow street.

Hiking

The distinctive, stepped cliffs are fascinating and instantly recognizable in almost every Irish travel guide. Furthermore, the coastline, with its wild and romantic beauty, is practically predestined for marriage proposals.
