As you look out over this breathtaking landscape, you could only be in Ireland. Where else would you find vibrant green fields divided by ancient stone walls; a dramatic coastline characterized by its jagged inlets and tiny islands, and a sky that changes every time you glance up at it. You’ll find wonderful scenery no matter where you are on the island, but this particular view is the Iveragh Peninsula in County Kerry, a place where land and sea collide to stunning effect.
