St. Finian's Bay, County Kerry, Ireland
Wind, waves and wonderful weather come together to create the crescent-shaped St. Finian’s Bay on the Atlantic coast in County Kerry, Ireland. Named after an Irish saint, Finian Cam, the bay boasts dramatic cliffs, pristine beaches and seascapes. Divers often make use of the pier in St. Finian's Bay as a starting point to explore the Skellig Rocks. For those seeking waves for surfing at St. Finian's Bay, springtime is considered ideal. However, caution must be exercised around the rocks. Interestingly, the Skellig Michael Islands, close to the bay, were once used as a filming location for the film, 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'. When visiting the bay, don't forget to make a stop at Skellig Chocolate Company at Ballinskelligs for a taste of indulgence.
