Been to each one over my lifetime and safe to say we really are lucky to have the places we do. Our little country really is an amazing place

Carlingford is gorgeous, but holy fuck it’s destroyed by stag and hen parties.
Westport
Heh, kind of funny to see Garrykennedy on a list like that. It’s definitely a pretty spot, but the village is basically the quay, Larkins, and a car park…and that’s it. I assume that population count must be for the whole townland, unless they’re including seagulls in that number, because I’m not sure you could even fit that many people into the village itself all at once.
So, the farther from Dublin, the better. I really need to get out of Dublin more often and see the green instead of the grey.

Where else deserves a spot in this list?
