The Slea Head walking loop follows the cliffs of the Dingle Peninsula's westernmost tip — past beehive huts, through the Gaeltacht village of Dunquin, around Clogher Head, and down to the beach at Coumeenoole. The Blasket Islands sit just offshore like a line of sleeping whales. On a clear day, the next land west is Boston.
Start in Ventry. Follow the coast road (R559) westward — there's a walkers' path below the road for most of the route. Pass through Fahan, Slea Head itself, Coumeenoole Beach, Dunquin, and finish at Clogher Head. Return by bus or pre-arranged pickup — it's a one-way walk.
