Right out at the edge of the Hook peninsula, stands the prominent landmark of Hook Head lighthouse.
The present structure is about 800 years old and is the oldest operational Lighthouse in the world. Hook Lighthouse offers guided tours of the lighthouse tower which is a 13th Century Norman structure, built by William Marshal, Earl of Pembroke as part of the development of his Lordship of Leinster.
It’s a great place to visit in all weathers where there is always an abundance of bracing fresh air to fill the lungs.
