Dia duit (Welcome) 

West Cork (Ireland) is a breath taking region of the world. It has a deep sense of magic and wonder.

From the woodlands to the coast, you can't help but fall in love with it. 

Growing up in South Africa, I have always been surrounded by a diverse natural enviroment, but ever since moving to Ireland my passion for the outdoors has grown.

I can only put it down to the mystery of Irish nature, the whole natural enviroment seems to thrive but covertly. 

It is only when you stop and make yourself see what is growing and thriving, are you amazed at the resilence and wonder of the natural world around you. 

This site is dedicated to bringing information to anyone who shares in this passion. 

I am no expert or proclaim to know a lot about anything but this is my journey as I delve deep into West Cork nature.
