Over the past number of years, Tyrone native Marius Monaghan has carved out a space for himself in the world of online content creation.
An outdoorsman at heart, his exploits are a scenic celebration of everything Ireland has to offer, whether it be documenting basking sharks in Kerry, or capturing breathtaking views from the peak of Diamond Hill in Connemara.
This week, Marius is sharing his itinerary for a gorgeous stay in Dingle, which starts with a roadtrip descending the Conor Pass - one of the highest mountain passes in Ireland - into the town of Dingle. A guide to driving the Conor Pass can be found here.
Dingle Town
When you hit the town, Monaghan suggests staying overnight in Base - a gorgeous slice of hospitality just 20 steps from My Boy Blue café.
Another coffee option can be found in Bean, while an amazing smattering of cheap eats and fine dining can be found in Solas, Fish Box, Blue Zone, Pig & Leaf and Murphy's Ice Cream.
A walk around the town will lead you to a fantastic day of shopping in Out West, Dingle Surf Shop, and Dingle Bookshop.
Dingle Peninsula
Outside the town, accomodation can be found in the Dingle Skelligs hotel, an award-winning four-star hotel situated on the most westerly peninsula in Europe. Cited as 'the most beautiful place on Earth' by National Geographic, the Dingle Peninsula is a must-see on any trip.
To make the most of your time in the Kingdom of Kerry, enjoy the sights of the Slea Head Drive (Slí Cheann Sléibhe) - a circular route forming part of the Wild Atlantic Way that begins and ends in Dingle
Key stops on your trip include the Blasket Centre, Coumeenoole Beach, Dunquin Pier, Dun Fort, and the Cross at Slea Head.
Breathtaking hikes can be found at Eask Tower (easy), Cean Sibeal (moderate), Croaghmartion (moderate), and Mount Brandon (hard).
If you have time for something extra special, Monaghan says that the Dingle Sea Safari is a must.
