Not to be missed while in the area:
Barley Cove Beach
Mizen Head
Butter Road Walking Trail

Schull Sunday Market
Skibbereen Saturday Market
Fastnet Lighthouse Ferrytrip
Fields Supervalu Skibbereen. Eating out options were limited in the area due to not all restaurants yet open for dining (June 21), but we were given a great tip to visit Fields for a Seafood Platter to take back to the house, best food we had all week.
