Here’s a rare chance to see the view from the Old Head of Kinsale Lighthouse

It’s closed to the public for most of the year.
But locals and tourists alike will have a rare chance to witness the stunning views from inside the Old Head of Kinsale Lighthouse in May.
Two open days have been permitted by the Old Head Golf Links and Commissioners of Irish Lights to raise funds for the development of the Old Head Signal Tower and Lusitania Museum.
The open days will take place on Saturday, May 13th and Sunday, May 14th, 2023 with shuttle buses running from the Old Head Signal Tower to the Old Head Lighthouse throughout the day from 9.30am until 5pm.
Parking will be available at the Old Head Signal Tower and disabled access to the Lighthouse Grounds is available by request.

“Make the most of this unique opportunity to visit the Old Head Lighthouse, usually off limits to the public, and take in the breathtaking views from the top.” said the organisers in an Instagram announcement.
“The Old Head Signal Tower and Signal Tower Cafe will be open throughout the weekend, with refreshments also available at the Lighthouse Grounds.”
