Kinsale is a picturesque historic town south of Cork, and can be your last (or second) stop on your Wild Atlantic Way journey. Highlights of the town include the 17th century Charles Fort and James Fort, the 13th century St. Multose Church, and Desmond Castle, also known as the "French prison" and home to a wine museum. Try to visit them all, but also save some time for a leisurely stroll in town, among its colorful streets and Georgian houses, and eat a delicious meal in one of its many quaint restaurants. If you fancy exploring a little below the surface, you'll be happy to know that Kinsale is also a popular diving destination. If instead you prefer to stay above the waves, there are plenty of water activities for you as well, like sailing, kayaking and fishing.
