We have just returned from our first very wet trip away this year from Wavecrest Caravan and Camping Site in Caherdaniel on the ring of Kerry (review done).Thought you might like a couple of photos.

I'm taking a friend for his stag do to the National Park> There's some great things to see and do but, be warned, Killarney town is like Ireland's version of Newquay in the summer. Get somewhere off the beaten track and you'll love it though. Beautiful part of the world.
Yea looks lovely. newbie-campers don't you just love tesco clubcard rewards. I've just taken my family of 5 to Alton towers for the weekend and it was all completely free with them. At £39.40 each to get in they are worth their weight in gold.
Lovely photos and reminds me of our holiday in Ireland last year (not camping) So much to see and do we didn't get to the Ring but managed the Cliffs of Moher and Connemara. Well worth a visit.

Looks great! I'm going to County Kerry next weekend but I'm staying at Mannix Point. Where is that beach bar in relation to Caherciveen?
Do you think Killarney National Park would be any good for two teenagers? I'm thinking of taking the kids to nearby Muckross House.
Wavecrest was a beautiful campsite, such a shame that the owners were not so, I have done a review but dont think it is up yet.
In answer to your question Victoria, O'connors beach bar would be about 18 miles from Caherciveen, really worth a visit, there is a small campsite there, right on the beach called Glenbeg, very basic, first come served basis, well maintained also. We have 4 kids, 2 of them teenagers and they loved walking around Killarney park, there is a castle ruin in the park, we had a couple of hours peace while they rambled around it. Mannix point looks like a beautiful site looks over Valentia Island, I hope you get better weather than we did, enjoy your stay.

I'm worried about the weather. I'd initially wanted to book Eagle Point near Bantry in Cork but it was one of the dearest Campsites in Ireland plus I couldn't have taken my dog there. Cork sometimes has near continental weather conditions but Kerry is only a wee bit up the coast. I'm keeping fingers crossed for some sun!
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
