To the southwest lies 1330ft Bolus, which overlooks St Finian’s Bay and the Skelligs. There is an inviting pub-restaurant overlooking the bay where you can enjoy an excellent meal and one of those great pints of Guinness. Rewarding boat trips can be made (weather permitting) to Skellig Rock and Puffin Island. A variety of traces of past occupation may be seen upon the slopes of Bolus, including stone alignments, ringforts and a monastic settlement. This is a peaceful spot on the Ring of Kerry, sitting on the Bolus looking down onto the Atlantic Ocean, the strand and the fishing boats, a place where you can loose yourself. ”If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.“ ~Mother Teresa.
