Looping around the Dingle Pennisular

The Dingle Peninsular is a spectacular coastline, less travelled than the Ring of Kerry, and Rick recommends skirting the latter to concentrate on Dingle Peninsular’s views and history. For film buffs, it is also where Robert Mitchum filmed Ryan’s Daughter in 1970. Enjoy my images:
