How safe is Dingle for female travelers?

Solo travel

Go see the monastery, definitely go to The cheese shop in Dingle it was amazing. Explore some of the beaches around Dingle they're really pretty. I absolutely loved my time in Dingle especially because I went during the Dingle food festival. If you can go during the Dingle food festival definitely do that.

Dingle was lovely! The Dingle peninsula on a sunny day is one of the most beautiful places ever. People are so friendly, and the trad music in the bars is incredible. I felt very safe, the food was great, and it wasn’t as expensive as other parts of Ireland.

How safe is Dingle for women?

Dingle is a very safe small town, I don’t fear walking in the dark/ in the night at all. The night life is good and mostly safe, I have heard of a few bad experiences but overall people feel safe. There are no spots to avoid as it is a small town and all the streets are safe.
