Fáilte Ireland on 7th Dec announced that Portmagee was the outright winner of the first ever National Tourism Towns Award. Portmagee was chosen from a shortlist of ten top tourism towns and received a grant of €10,000 that will go towards developing the village's tourism potential. What a wonderful achievement!

And, since Killorglin is right on the road to Portmagee, their success can also be ours. We now have an opportunity to showcase Killorglin to those flocking to spend some of the Christmas and New Year break in the south Kerry village. People will also be impressed by the beauty of our town and may be tempted to stop a while - let's make sure they do!
