Beara peninsula is rich in archaeological sites that one can’t simply do away with. Graves rich in history, stone circles, ring forts and ancient monuments are few of the legacy spots that have been a popular tourist attraction here. This peninsula is an excellent place to hark back to the glorious days of the Puxley family, a great historical figure in the land.

Cyclists will definitely find the Beara peninsula as one of the few places with the finest cycling route. This route is well acclaimed nationally. The way covers a distance of 138 km which offers the cyclists the ideal chance to pedal their way along the towns and scenic places that are included in the course. Amazingly, this is not a competition. Cycling here is not intended to finish a race. This means that anyone can join in by squeezing themselves in the group from any town that is covered by the route.

The Beara Peninsula coasts are marine rich, thus, making it a well visited shore angling spot. With the abundance of sea fishes along the vicinity, only a rod is needed to complete the great angling experience.
