West Cork & Mizen Head

About this tour

This full day tour takes you deep into West Cork, one of Ireland's most scenically rewarding corners. The day starts in Skibbereen, a market town with a strong artistic tradition and a history closely tied to the Great Famine, home to the Skibbereen Heritage Centre. From there the road continues out to Mizen Head — Ireland's most southwesterly point, where sea cliffs, Atlantic waves and the signal station bridge make for one of the most dramatic settings on the west coast.

As with every Cork Day Trips itinerary, this route is a starting point — travelling privately means stops, pace and timing can all be adjusted to suit your party.
