This is quite probably one of the most spectacular spots for a road race in Cork if not the country. Bere Island on a fine day is an amazing spot with the backdrop of Bantry Bay and the Beara Peninsula.
The races take place in Rerrin village at the eastern end of the island...
There are two car and passenger ferries servicing the island...Bere Island Ferries and Murphy's Ferry.
You can pre-enter online HERE or on the day at the GAA grounds.
A full preview of the course with directions, maps and photos can be seen HERE.

My first thought - 20 euros is a bit steep, can't imagine that will help in attracting a crowd. Secondly. only 1st place given for O40s. Not great either.
