Kinsale
Kinsale also has a fabulous coast line and is highly noted for Kinsale
Head - it's outer cliffs
Of course the most notable history of Kinsale Head was
the sinking of the RMS Lusitania
14 miles off shore on Friday, 7th of May 1915.
Seems a German U Boat, U-20,
let go two torpedoes which both hit the Lusitania
causing it to sink in 310 feet of water
taking 1,201people down with her.
