The site itself is set to the south west of the town of Cahirciveen (which has several spellings to confuse the unwary), which is a small town that offers restaurants, pubs and all manner of local shops. Being so close to the coast, seafood fresh from the Atlantic is a speciality of the region.
As well as the scenic delights of the region, locally you can enjoy horse-riding, sea and river fishing, diving, bird-watching, golf, scenic cycle rides and car trips, as well as art galleries, potteries, archaeological sites and all manner of great pubs. It's also worth noting that Mannix Point is the closest campsite to the departure point for the boat that takes you on a tour of the Skelligs which are famous for their gannet and puffin populations.
