Tralee is a vibrant town with a rich history and culture. Visit the Tralee Town Park, home to the famous Rose of Tralee International Festival, or explore the local shops and cafes on Henry Street. Don’t miss the iconic Blennerville Windmill, a 18th-century landmark that offers stunning views of the bay.
