Skibbereen/Baltimore

Beautiful small harbour towns

Skibbereen is a vibrant small town with some of the best seafood and pints in Ireland. The Skibbereen Heritage Centre in town will bring you on an insightful, yet sad and truthful experience about Irish history during the famine. Just a little further south of Skibbereen is the village of Baltimore, a beautiful village overlooking a natural harbour. If you’re a fan of gardens, Baltimore has just that for you. One of the famous landmarks in Baltimore is the Beacon located high on the cliff edge at the entrance of the harbour, and ferries can bring guests to Sherkin, Cape Clear, and Heir Islands.
