When you want to relax you can enjoy a drink and craic in Dessie O' Sullivan's Bar, Rerrin Village or in the Hotel, Ballinakilla. In Kitty's Café and Restaurant you can enjoy a snack or an evening meal in a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. For the keen sailor there's the Lawrence Cove Marina. As with the rest of the Beara Peninsula, there are numerous historical sites to view, such as the wedge Tomb and a standing stone. The Ardnakinna Lighthouse (pictured above) was constructed in 1850 and capped in 1863. Lit in 1965, the light sweeps across the famous Piper Rocks. Again the panoramic views waiting for you here only add to the beautiful views you will experience along the rugged trail to the lighthouse.
