Location: Whiddy Island, County Cork

Whiddy Island is a small island, located 1.5 miles off the coast of Bantry in West Cork. A daily foot ferry runs regularly to Bantry with crossings taking 10 minutes each. A popular location for visitors, this delightful island boasts stunning views and a pub and small restaurant, which serves locally caught fish including fresh crab and mussels. There are ample watersports opportunities, with many great coves and inlets providing ideal spots for swimming. Enjoy fantastic fishing, birdwatching, cycling and walking or try and spot a dolphin or otter in the surrounding waters! Just a short ferry crossing away is the bustling Irish market town of Bantry, situated at the head of the famous and beautiful Bantry Bay in the heart of West Cork. This is one of the most naturally beautiful and unspoilt areas of Ireland, full of picturesque bays and beaches, spectacular hills and welcoming hostelries, shops and restaurants. The vibrant city of Cork is also well worth a visit and is about an hour's drive away.
