Most underrated place

Norn Iron (mainly the coast).
Shunned by Southerners that still think there is open war on the streets.
Beautiful sceneries and very nice people.

Nope i lived there for two summers (work :rolleyes:) and there is literally fúck all else to do except drink. If its sunny you can drive to Fanore and sit on the beach to drink. But everything involves boozing. Which was fun for about... a week

The nicest thing I've done in ireland was the drive from Westport to Clifden to Galway. Its so pretty up there and it was on a beautiful day, you get mountains, lakes, the ocean, old style irish pubs for food, and at the top of one mountainous piece of road we had to get out and move some lambs and sheep of the road. Was amazing, just wish i had had my camera.

Done it myself a couple of times. Last time it was october/november. It was foggy when driving through the mountainous area, which was amazing. Think we ended up in Kylemore Abbey afterwards, which is also a lovely place for a day out

Your posts are the most crass, immature, pointless, rough around the edges and downright pathetic on these boards.

Seriously, why do you bother? You're like a child who keeps doing bold things cause he feels he's not getting enough attention.

You're anti-drugs, and anti the legalisation of even cannabis. But you're addicted to reactions. You can't wait to provoke the next one.

heh heh, luckily I don't give a fcuk about your opinion.

Moore Hall is one of my favourite spots

Sligo obviously!

My bedroom- Lovely place, great company, and all that type of stuff. Seriously, ladies, you'd love it. C'mon round :pac:

Dublin is not as bad as the muck savages from Galway and Westmeath would have you believe.Despite the bad attitude and inferiority complexes of the natives it's a lovely city with great shopping and architecture.Let's be honest Dublin and Cork are the only real cities in Ireland.:pac:Waterford is a lovely port town and it's the oldest city in ireland.The place has great potential all it need's is some investment and the locals are very sound and genuine.btw West Waterford is also very underrrated.The area from just over the Youghal bridge to Dungarvan is very scenic.

Basque Country.
Particularly the Bilbao - San Sabastian - Pamplona triangle. Beautiful part off the world, lovely people and super cheap if you're smart.

Would love to live there for a few years.

Galicia in North West Spain. Green as Ireland but sunny and warm all year round. Friendly people, good food and lovely wine and beer. They have fantastic unspoilt beaches and scenery there too. A bit isolated but definitely worth the visit.

In Dublin, my favorite thing to do is take a walk from Dalky Quarry to Killiney Hill and down along Killiney beach afterwards.

I've seen some pretty amazing views from that part of Dublin.
The quarry looks great during spring/summer when the places is literally covered in bright yellow bushes, it looks beautiful.

Dude! I love Moore Hall. No-one really knows about it, but it is COOL! One of Mayo's MANY hidden secrets.

Amazotheamazing · 29-03-2011 11:35PM

Internationally, Nepal. Great spot.

In Ireland, tempted as i am to say Limerick, I'll go with Valentia Island. The place is just amazing.

eternal · 29-03-2011 11:48PM

Some parts of Kerry are beautiful .The Slea Head drive.Down around Waterville ,the drive to there is unreal ,photos dont do it justice.
I love Killarney on a night out ,it is a bit tacky in places but it has the INEC and some good pubs and clubs.Its hard not to enjoy yourself there .

rossie1977 · 30-03-2011 12:16AM

everyone knows killarney though, not exactly under-rated

inishowen in donegal, beautiful part of the world, empty unspoiled beaches, iron age forts, malin head, mamore gap, fort dunree, lough swilly and lough foyle

when i have mentioned inishowen to some irish people they have said "inish where"

jiffybag · 30-03-2011 12:27AM

Tullagh bay , near Clonmany in Donegal . Simply stunning .

I don't think Westport is underrated though, a lot of people like the place.

Well my post was about Kerry ,just included Killarney maybe cos there was so much negativity about the place.But I get what youre saying.

jimbobaloobob · 30-03-2011 12:49AM

Sliabh league in Co. Donegal.

Gougane beara and the National Park in Cork.

Dogs Bay, Ballyconnelly Galway

All so different and so peaceful.

Nights out Killarney and Galway. But really i think its the company on nights out that make anywhere great.

eternal · 30-03-2011 12:52AM

I would say Donegal too ,the people are soo nice its unreal.Plus nice men ! I dont know if the scenery is as nice as west cork ,but tbh I didnt see too much of it.

jimbobaloobob · 30-03-2011 12:55AM

Im from neither donegal or kerry but im undecided on which i find is most underated, both have so many gems!

love some of the places to eat in Killarney.

love sitting beside that waterfall near Maghera beach (not sure of spelling) in Donegal.

eternal · 30-03-2011 12:58AM

Some the restaurants in Killarney are terrible.The nicest dinner I had there was in the Randles ,they have a fine dining (well close enough) restaurant in the back of the hotel.Its pretty expensive ,but nice for a treat.Scotts food is good enough too,in the bar and the hotel itself.

Westport's great, not underrated at all though, I thanked the first post for making me smile

The Poison Glen, near Dunlewy in Donegal---drive into the mountains as the sun goes down on a summer's evening

The Ards Forest and Marble Hill beach near Dunfanaghy in Donegal

Dunfanaghy itself--beautiful little village near Horn Head

Chile.

Im liking this thread cos its positive.
Crookhaven way down west cork is stunning ,dont know if a lot of people know about it.Some from the city go down to watersport.
The beaches down around there are unspoiled and the pubs small ,intimate and cosy .Its a crazy drive from the city ,but well worth it.Scenery is breathtaking

Most underrated place
