The Dingle Peninsula is a popular loop to drive in the southern part of Ireland. It took a couple of hours to drive down to it from Bunratty. Here’s the list of the popular spots that we stopped at… Inch Beach. Cars could drive and park on the beach. Minard Read more…

Day 5: Cliffs of Moher, King John’s Castle, Bunratty Castle (Ireland)
