Glandore
Cuan Dor
A terraced fishing village climbing a hillside above a picturesque harbour, facing Union Hall across a bridge.
Glandore is one of West Cork's most photogenic villages. Its houses are stacked in tiers up the hillside, overlooking a harbour dotted with a small island called Adam and Eve, and the village is a gathering place for sailors. The terraces of its two pubs are ideal for drinking a beer while looking out at the sea. Crossing the long bridge brings you to the fishing village of Union Hall, from where you can take boat trips for whale watching or sea fishing. Glandore lies about 2 km from the Drombeg Stone Circle, so the two can be visited together.
