Sarah-Kim Watchorn Ireland guide

Bolus Head is an exploratory destination located on the Skellig Ring in County Kerry, Ireland. This stunning landscape offers breathtaking views of sweeping coastline, where one can experience a variety of wildlife and plant life. Located just off Ballinskelligs Bay, Bolus Head is a must-see for any visitor to the area. It provides a great opportunity to go along the coast, far away from the hustle and bustle of the cities, and take some time to unwind in a tranquil setting. Here, visitors will find some unique rock formations, and they may even have the chance to see dolphins or other wildlife playing in the sea. On clear days, visitors may even be able to spot the beautiful Blasket Islands; you'll never forget this majestic and memorable panoramic view!

When you're here, keep an eye out for whales and dolphins, I've see fin and humpback whales here along with tonnes of common dolphins. Pop across the other side of the head to ballinskelligs side too for a look out.
