Inch, A Magnificent Four- Mile Stretch Of Strand.

The head of Dingle Bay is cut off by two narrow sand-hill promontories – one an offshoot of the Dingle Peninsula at Rossbeigh – which enclose the harbour of Castlemaine. Situated on the inner side of the Dingle promontory, and facing south, is the sheltered seaside resort of Inch.

Inch has a magnificent four-mile strand of firm golden sand, backed by sandhills which are well known to archaeologists for Kitchen Middens and old habitation sites.

And there is a very nice handy bar/old hotel just on the edge of the road, towards Dingle.

Dingle Bay sweeps gently in, affording safe bathing, and presenting a beautiful picture of blue waters with softly tinted mountains on either side.

Inch is a particularly convenient centre for motor and cycling tours, and amongst the local excursions which may be suggested are drives to Dingle, Slea Head, Ballyferriter, Connor Pass, Camp and Castlegregory.
