Dog's Bay Beach

Reviewed By victoriafoody - Victoria, Canada

We discovered this beach at the end of our day driving the Wild Atlantic way. In hindsight, we should have driven straight here and just hanged out at the beach. We arrived here without any beach gear (swim suits, towels etc), but it didn't matter. We were just happy to walk or sit on the gorgeous white sandy beach, play in the crystal clear water and admire the beauty of the landscape. We had only allowed ourselves an hour here, next time we'll make sure that we can spend most of the day to relax at the beach.

Glassilaun Beach

Reviewed By AoifeD979 - Trim, Ireland

Loved this beach. It’s hard not to. We had sun for a few hours and then had light rain and we still stayed on the beach playing ball. It was just gorgeous

This is a stunningly beautiful bay, with white coral sand and turquoise sea. Well worth a stop to take it all in.

Diamond Hill

Reviewed By DubTourist123

Great hike! Very well maintained trail with nice and clean toilet facilities at the entrance to the National Park. Amazing views from the top of the surrounding area. Worth keeping in mind that proper footwear is needed as it does get a bit rocky near the top.

There was six of us four adults and two children, we did the alpaca meet and greet. Ruth and Stuart were so friendly and welcoming. The farm is beautiful, the alpacas are adorable especially Reuben. The children really enjoyed the day out having the opportunity to feed the alpacas was a great experience for them. After our lovely tour on the farm we got treated to some beverages and alpaca biscuits. Most certainly will be visiting again.
