WALKING TRAIL
Fermoyle Beach Walk
Natural History: Bird watchers and archaeologists will find this route of interest as you will find numerous species along the walk, together with shell middens in the sand dune system. There is one extensive shell midden right on Ceann Duimhche which appears to have some stone structures built into it, and there is also evidence of a lime kiln close by. It is also a superb beach for shore fishing.
Route 1 Directions: From Fermoyle Beach Carpark, The hour walk swings to the left (west), along the beach, around Ceann Duimhche, and returns along by the back beach. Follow the route along the back beach and it leads on to a small arched gate. Turn to the left and after a short distance on the road turn left again and you will be brought back to the carpark at Fermoyle beach.
Route 2 Directions: A longer route along the coast is to remain on the beach and follow the Dingle Way out on the Western side of the Maharees peninsula to Kilseanaigh, Maharees. From the carpark at Fermoyle the walk follows an easterly route along the beach. During the summer the waters along the coast are tempting to swimmers, divers and surfers.
