Timeline
15:59
Grab a pint at Kingston Brewing Company. The patio is a relaxed place to wait for the light to change, and their seasonal brews are a local staple.
16:19
Walk 8 minutes east-northeast to An Gorta Mor Park. This is your vantage point. The park offers an unobstructed view of the tower across the water.
16:44
Watch the sun set directly behind Murney Tower. The 467-meter line of sight creates a striking silhouette of the historic Martello tower against the fading light.
17:04
Head back west-southwest to Chez Piggy Restaurant & Bar for a late dinner. It is located just a short walk from the park and offers a reputation for good food to cap off the evening.
Local tip
