Ladies View – Ring Of Kerry
September 25, 2013 | POSTED IN Featured Photos
The Ladies View lookout is part of the Ring of Kerry and can be found between Killarney and Kenmare on the N71. On a nice day its a great stop off spot to take in the view and just enjoy how damn beautiful Ireland is. I will say however getting to the ladies view lookout is somewhat of an experience with tour buses also using this narrow stretch of road. […]

Strandhill Beach is located approximately 11 kilometers from the town of Sligo and offers amazing views and surfing options for those brave enough enter the water. If you prefer to just take in the view then Shells Cafe directly opposite is a must in my opinion. Having sampled their scones and jam I can say even if you don’t like beaches this little cafe is worth the trip.
