Beara is a rocky peninsula trailing into the Atlantic Ocean in the south-west of Ireland—mostly in County Cork, but partly in County Kerry. It is a fascinating mixture of wild scenery, ancient monuments (some very ancient), and working landscape (including rough grazing, the remains of the old copper mines at Allihies, and the very active small seaport at Castletownbere). These pictures give a sense of the variety, interest, and attraction of this remote area.
