Answer 5

I just got back from Ireland a few days ago. If you want to bypass the huge crowds around such places as the Ring of Kerry and Blarney Castle, go to equally neat places with less traffic like the Dingle Peninsula or the other castles (Trim and Athenry are great).

Donegal is also a neat place to go.Malin Head was amazing.

Probably the best place I saw was the southern coast.
