The County Kerry region
County Kerry, traditionally known as the 'kingdom', is situated in the extreme south-west of Ireland. Kerry has two contrasting types of terrain - the mountainous south with the Beara, Iveragh and Dingle peninsulas, and the smaller 'plains' area that stretches as far north as the Shannon estuary. Along the coast, sandy bays alternate with cliffs and rocky headlands. You'll also see regions of outstanding scenic beauty, such as the Ring of Kerry.
The county town is Tralee while one of Ireland's most famous towns, Killarney, is also located in County Kerry. The Lakes of Killarney, an area of outstanding natural beauty, are located in Killarney National Park. The tip of the Dingle Peninsula is the most westerly point of Ireland. Likewise, Fenit, the port of Tralee, is the most westerly commercial shipping port in Europe.
Sneem / Inchinaleega area
Situated on the Northern side of Kenmare Bay, lying between the towns of Kenmare and Waterville, is the picturesque village of Sneem. Resting near the foot of a spectacular mountain range dominated by the 2,245 ft Knockmoyle, this village with its unusual "hour-glass" shape is divided in two by the River Sneem and traversed by a bridge which is the focal point of the village.
Located on the famous Ring of Kerry, Sneem provides an ideal base for anyone exploring the Kingdom of Kerry . With its immaculately kept greens, colourful houses and haven of activities, Sneem is a must to visit. Its popularity is reflected by its long list of famous personalities who have visited the village including: Princess Grace of Monaco, Bernard Shaw, Charles De Gaulle, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Charlie Chaplin to name but a few.
One will never be bored in Sneem with plenty to see and do. Sea Kayaking is very popular in this area and is available at a number of locations. The most magical of these are, probably, Oysterbed and the Parknasilla Islands. With numerous families of seals, various species of birds and tree covered islands, the area provides spectacular scenery and ideal conditions for the Kayaker. Many other activities are also available including: golf, horse-riding, wind-surfing, water-skiing, sea-angling and sailing.
The town really comes to life during the third week of July, when there is non-stop music entertainment to celebrate the main event in the town's calendar - "The Family Festival".
