Depart from Dingle pier and embark on a journey to the Dingle Distillery, where you’ll enjoy a guided tour of the whiskey, gin, and vodka production process. The Dingle Whiskey Distillery was founded by three visionary entrepreneurs: Oliver Hughes, Liam LaHart, and Peter Mosley, the same trio behind the Porterhouse Brewing Company, one of Ireland’s pioneering craft breweries since 1996. At a time when craft beer was considered a bold and unconventional idea in Ireland, Oliver, Liam, and Peter’s passion for quality brews eventually led them to whiskey. On your tour, you’ll learn about the history of the distillery and the intricacies of the production process. After the tour, you’ll have a short break to browse the small gift shop before continuing your journey. Next, enjoy a short drive to the Dingle Crystal Workshop for a factory demonstration. Founded by master craftsman Sean Daly, Dingle Crystal is a family-run business known for its exquisite hand-cut Irish crystal. Sean, who trained for 15 years at Waterford Crystal, opened his workshop in Dingle in 1999 after Waterford Crystal moved its production overseas. He wanted to preserve the tradition of Irish crystal cutting, which dates back to the 18th century, and today he is one of the last remaining master cutters in Ireland. During your visit, the Daly family will welcome you and take you on a tour of the workshop, where you can admire the unique Celtic designs featured in the Dingle Crystal collection. Watch a live crystal cutting demonstration and see the craftsmanship behind each piece. Afterward, you’ll return to Dingle port, reflecting on the rich traditions of whiskey and crystal-making that you’ve just experienced.

Arriving at the Blasket Centre, located at the very tip of the Dingle Peninsula, you’ll explore a captivating heritage museum dedicated to the unique community that once inhabited the remote Blasket Islands. The Blasket Centre tells the story of island life, from subsistence fishing and farming to traditional work, transport, home life, and entertainment. It also highlights the community’s resilience and their profound literary legacy, which includes works like The Islandman, Twenty Years A-Growing, and Peig. Through a combination of exhibits, interactive displays, artifacts, audiovisual presentations, and artwork, you’ll gain a deep understanding of the culture, language, and history of the people who lived in this isolated corner of Ireland.
