This point is named after St. Brendan.

Saint Brendan is said to have left from here on his lengendary 7 year voyage in search of Hy Brasail, or the "Island of the Blessed". It is believed he travelled to Iceland, Greenland and maybe even America.

 

The area is a very popular spot for bird watching, particularly in Autumn.
