The beauty of BANTRY is its setting at the head of ever-turbulent Bantry Bay, which stretches thirty miles from the town to the ocean. The deep, churning blue waters of the bay, backed by the dramatic heights of the Beara's Caha Mountains and cowering, usually, under a notoriously changeable sky, form as dramatic a backdrop as any in Ireland. If the tide's out, it's well worth taking a short stroll along the stony shore from the north end of the harbour to fully appreciate all of this. Alternatively, take the steep road that runs up to Vaughan's Pass from the back of the town, as this also affords spectacular views over the bay.
