Today was the first day all 11 of us signed up for the daily tour . . which was to Bantry Bay and Garinish Island.
We traveled South to Kenmare, a quaint town renowned for its traditional lace, located in one of the most natural unspoiled environments in Europe. We enjoyed breathtaking views of Bantry Bay as we traveled over the Caha Pass to the resort village of Glengarriff, where we boarded a ferry for a short journey to the tropical island of Garinish. This small island was transformed into an exotic garden in 1920 by Harold Peto, and is known to horticulturists and lovers of trees and shrubs all around the world as an island garden or rare beauty. On our way back to Killarney we took the scenic route through Killarney National Park.
