Free day activities in the Dingle peninsula

My family will be traveling on the 14 day Best of Ireland tour with its free day in Dingle. What are some good options to make the most of this day and this beautiful location?

Gap of Dunloe, a pint at Foxy John’s, Coulmeenoole Beach, Inch Beach, Kilarney National Park. You’ll need a car for all except Foxy John’s.

Are you wanting to spend the day in and around Dingle itself, or are you wanting to venture a bit further afield? (If so what places have you balready covered on youyr tour?)

Are you planning on hiring a car for the day ?

Think about a guided walk around Dingle town or a guided tour around Dingle Distillery or a visit to Dingle Aquarium.

There are ideas for a self guided amble round Dingle here and details of the Dingle Health for walk here.

The RS tour guide will give you some suggestions . It poured rain on our free day in Dingle so I stayed in town. If you like seafood, I recommend Out of the Blue. I had a fantastic meal here. They have a chalkboard menu based on whatever was caught that day. You need to make a reservation well in advance of your trip:

Some of the folks on our tour took boat excursions (dolphins?) from the harbor. But I wouldn't make any plans until you know the weather.
