The picturesque village of Sneem is situated midway
between Kenmare and Waterville on the Northern side of Kenmare Bay
on the Ring of Kerry. Sneem meaning Knot
in Gaelic is a winner of Tidy towns of Ireland and
everyone that visits
will see why.
It is immaculately kept with its traditional
buildings, pubs, restaurants and craft shops, painted in an array of
beautiful colours. On the village green there is a sculpture of
former President of Ireland, Cearbhall Ó Dalaigh who had lived in
Sneem. Steve
Casey know as "Crusher" World
Champion wrestler 1938 to 1945 hails from
Sneem and a statue has been erected in his honour
Down towards the pier there is a picnic area with benches and tables
and barbecue area
where visitors can come to relax on the banks of
the river Sneen.
Across the way is The Garden
of the Senses where visitors can stroll through
and experience
the fragrant aromas.
