Site Details
A town situated at the eastern end of Bantry Bay, between the Beara and Sheep's Head Peninsulas in West Cork. The creek in the town generally holds decent numbers of gulls in winter, while the outer harbour is productive for estuarine and harbour species including regular Black-throated Diver.
Just to the north of the town, a larger tidal bay can hold good numbers of roosting gulls alongside the usual estuarine species.
