Highlights:
- 4WD beach journeys
- Surfing, horse riding & sea kayaking
- Wildlife, waterfalls, islands & castles
You'll leave the road behind and journey by 4WD along beaches, through rivers and down hidden trails. En route you'll be walking in forests, surfing, horse riding, sea kayaking, playing "vagaball" (beach volleyball), spotting seals and enjoying beach BBQs (some activities optional). At the end of the day you can look forward to a roaring fire, music, great food and a pint of Guinness (adults only!)
After kissing the world-famous Blarney Stone and seeing the Titanic's last port of call, you'll head out onto the undiscovered Beara Peninsula to explore the castles of Dun Booey. Taking a secret shortcut through the mountains you'll then negotiate the Healy Mountain Pass (Ireland's Bendiest Road) and hop on the ferry to Bere Island - one of the most remote places in Ireland. Joining the Ring of Kerry, you'll head for the Dingle Peninsula - via a goat fair - and take The Conor Pass (Ireland's Highest Road) to Brandon Bay before returning to Cork.
