Local activities include pony treking, fishing and golf at Dooks 18-hole course overlooked by the spectacular McGillicuddy Reeks. There’s live music in nearby village pubs, and several good restaurants. The Lakes of Killarney, Valentia Island, Derrynane, the Black Valley, Dingle (with an aquarium) and the Skelligs provide great day trips.
