Town in Ireland

Dingle

3 things to see

Dingle is a tiny, colorful harbor town on the Wild Atlantic Way, where the best of it is free: the harbor, the coastal walks around the peninsula, and traditional music sessions that fill the pubs most nights at no cover. The surrounding Gaeltacht is a genuine Irish-speaking area, and the scenic Slea Head loop costs nothing but petrol. It is a long haul west of Dublin, so most budget travelers fold it into a wider road trip.
