KENMARE
The Jewel in the Ring of Kerry
- This is a Virtual
Tour of the Town of Kenmare
- Kenmare is a beautiful
small town nestling in the foothills below the Kerry and Beara
Mountains.
- It's original name
was Nedeen- later Neidin (the Little Nest) and that's very apt
as it's snug on the Kenmare Estuary nestling amongst the hills.
- Kenmare was also the
starting point of The Grand Atlantic Tour (now known as the Ring
of Kerry)
- The Shops and Houses have now been
colour-washed and this makes Kenmare a very colourful and attractive
town.
- Many Artists and other
creative people live in Kenmare and the surrounding area and
it's becoming quite famous as a creative centre.
- It's also a centre
for healing therapies.
- Kenmare has excellent
shops.coffee bars,pubs and restaurants and a number of fine Hotels
,Guest Houses and Bed and Breakfasts..
