Hi, my sister has 5 days to explore Kerry on her way up from Cork to Galway. Can anyone please give me recommendations of places to visit as neither of us have been before so trying to help her organise it?
She is in her early 20s and is going with her boyfriend - both are sporty and although drinkers, they are more into sight seeing/daytime activities than being night time party animals (as far as I know!!)
Killarney is a good base for the ring of Kerry and the national park ( torc mountain is a nice easy hike with excellent views over the lakes) could allow 1 day for the Ring and another for the national park & A drive through the Gap of Dunloe
The drive to dingle is nice with Inch strand on they way if the want to stop (its about 4 miles of beach jutting out into the bay. West of dingle has the most spectacular scennary in Kerry and you get to see a lot more in a shorter time span then you do on the Ring.
Both Killarney and Dingke are lively at night with good restaurants
