Baltimore is beautiful

Is this within easy reach of Cork for a day trip or would it be better to find a B&B for the night down that end?

We wouldn't mind exploring that part, especially as it seems one of the better whale and dolphin seeking trips is based near Skibbereeen, and had already considered perhaps just staying one night in/near Cork and then moving on the next day.

Baltimore is right next to Skibereen. A B&B would be a good idea, I think it's quite a distance from Cork - i seem to remember about three hours

I was there 7 years ago.
