Introducing Dingle
The peninsula’s capital is a very special place indeed. It’s one of Ireland’s largest Gaeltacht towns and a friendly dolphin called Fungie has lived in the bay for 25 years.

These charms have long drawn runaways from across the world, making the port town a surprisingly cosmopolitan, creative place. It’s a popular stomping ground for stag and hen parties, as well as the Fungie-hunting hordes.
