Cycling

Directly along the spectacular Slea Head Drive lie these unique 'clocháin' or beehive huts. These conical stone structures, built without cement using the ancient dry-stone method, once housed early Christian hermits. From the bike, you have a phenomenal view here of the cliffs that fall sheer into the Atlantic Ocean, with the contours of the Blasket Islands on the horizon.

Great ride! It is best to drive clockwise, then you are closer to the water
