    Plenty of good pubs in Dingle, no shortage either!
    Dick Macs is one, An Droichead Beag. Many of the pubs do food, especially along the harbour. I'm sure you'll get a lot more suggestions and recommendations though!

    Like Ciarrai said there are lots of pubs in Dingle -- the food ones tend to be along the harbour with a few in Main St. Depends on the type of music you like etc. Benners or the Skellig Hotel do bar food as well.
    Activity wise - there are lots of casual walks -- along the harbour, up towards the Conor Pass etc. Not sure if you'd fancy a trip on a boat to see Fungie? Depends on the weather and how you might be feeling after a late night :) There are longer trips too out to the Blaskets but at this time of the year the sea is rougher etc.
    The Aquarium is good too -- no matter what the weather -- it's just at the end of the harbour.
    If you've cars then a drive around Slea Head or up to the top of the Conor Pass is hard to beat -- lots of places to stop too - Páidí O Sé's pub in Ventry, Dunquin Pottery, the Blasket interpretative centre in Dunquin, Mulcahys Pottery in Clogher, Gallarus Oratory, Kilmalkedar etc...
    Theres a rock climbing wall at Dingle at Height/Explorers world in Ballinaboola just to the west of the town (same warning as the Fungie trip though!)
    Dingle distillery is at Milltown just at the edge of the town too.
    I've probably left out lots -- depending on which weekend it is too you might come across an event or two - e.g. this weekend there's a film festival happening.
    Check https://www.dingle-peninsula.ie/visitor-enquiries.html for a few more ideas too.
    I'd suggest you phone any of these first just to make sure they're open and available.

    Also check out the Dick Macs brewhouse, they do a brewery tour every day.

    Definitely do the Slea head drive! It’s stunning!

    Hire a bus for a booze tour of Slea Head
