    Kinsale is a historic harbour town at the mouth of the River Bandon, known for its colourful streets, maritime heritage, and exceptional culinary reputation. It lies about 25 km south of Cork and forms the official starting point of the Wild Atlantic Way. The town combines a compact medieval street plan with an open, wide harbour basin that has been strategically important for centuries. Call it the little Honfleur of Southern Ireland.
