Well we did this Peninsula without actually going to Mizen Head because we would have been too late out there to make it across the bridge that closes at 5pm. It would have been good to visit the old signalling Station. Anyway we saw lots of great scenery so check the photos of Crookhaven and a well known surf spot of Barley Cove

SW CNR-Galley Head
there were waves here and once again you couldn,t get out to the end of Galley Head with the lighthouse people blocking the way
SW CNR--Old Head to Lispatrick Beach
After the bad weather of Kinsale and Old Head we didn't get too much further to a place where some guys were surfing in 3-4 ft junk and we free camped with some other vans. Rained had stopped in the morning and it was smaller and cleaner in the surf
THE WILD ATLANTIC WAY
Ireland have made a route up that follows the Atlantic Ocean around all the laneways and roads which in a country that is only a couple of hundred miles long ends up being 1500 miles long. ITS DROP DEAD GEORGEOUS !!!! and we will split it up into the various Rings or peninsulas and try to keep them in order South to North
Kinsale & Old Head Golf Club
it was wet in KInsale and also wild out at Old Head. Didn't know there was a millionaires golf course out there which stop people from reaching the headland . We bluffed our way past security who was really worried about the dress code and managed to get in there for a look around---240 euros a game to lose a 1000 balls in those conditions !! ha ha
