Highlights
Charles Fort
This star-shaped fortress at the south end of Summer Cover in Kinsale is situated directly over the water. Constructed over 400 years ago this martial edifice played a role in the Siege of Kinsale, as the artifacts in its small museum show.
St Multose Church
Close to the regional museum you will find St Multose. The present building, which is the oldest structure in present day Kinsale, stands on the site of a 6th Century monastery. Nearly a 1000 years old, its features include an inscription in Norman French, carved memorials and records of the coronation of King Charles II after the announcement that Charles I had been executed in London.
James Fort
This pentagonal fort dates from the 17th Century and occupies a conspicuous position overlooking the Castlepark peninsula in Kinsale harbour. Built to defend the harbour immediately after the siege of Kinsale, it is now a protected National Monument.
Old Head of Kinsale
The emerald green lawns of this world-class golf course stretch out into the ocean that surrounds Old Head. Offering some of the most impressive views to be found on any golf course in the world, the ocean gleams as you tee off on this rugged headland on the tip of Ireland. The clubhouse features a spa and restaurant with a delectable menu.
Nohoval Cove
Take a dip in this sparkling cove, create a barbeque with friends or bring a book and just listen to the ocean. The crags that jut from the ocean floor give Nohoval an air of drama, especially at dawn and dusk, when they are illuminated by the low sun.
