Sightseeing
Walk along some of the most rugged cliffs in Ireland, with tremendous views of Ballycotton Lighthouse. The walk begins just outside the quaint little fishing village of Ballycotton and continues for a 12k loop (you can do as much or as little as you want). Stop at Skinny's for delicious fish and chips when your walk is complete! There are a number of great pubs in the village, many of whom do really good food.
