Mizen Head on the Mizen Peninsula is Ireland's mainland most southwesterly point. Breathtaking cliffs, beautiful views, lively sea life and educational experiences can all be found here. Head right away to the Visitor Centre, where you'll learn more about the history of this place, which is home to a signal station that housed Ireland's first radio beacon. Then, climb down the 99 steps that lead to a high arched suspension bridge connecting a rocky crag to the mainland, until you find yourself at the signal station, where another exciting exhibition awaits. Out on the horizon, you can spot the imposing Fastnet Lighthouse standing on a rock known as Ireland’s teardrop.

A popular local escape, its clear, shallow waters and proximity to town make it ideal for a quick swim or a late-afternoon visit.

Recent upgrades have added free municipal sunbeds and improved parking, enhancing its appeal as a convenient and relaxed seaside option.

Achaia Clauss is a historic winery founded in 1861 in the hills above Patras, renowned for producing the iconic Greek fortified wine, Mavrodaphne.

The experience culminates in a tasting focused on the Mavrodaphne variety, where you may have the rare opportunity to sample a century-old vintage directly from the barrel.
