Benefiting local communities 9 6. Visitor satisfaction 11 7. Responsible marketing and communication 13 8. Cultural respect and awareness 14 1 2 Ecotourism can be defined as responsible travel that offers visitors an opportunity to experience and learn about the natural environment, history, and culture of a region. Our aim at Tralee Bay Wetlands is to introduce visitors to the beautiful cultural and natural heritage of the Tralee Bay area and to raise awareness of environmental and conservation issues in general. The key point is the issue of “responsible” travel, and we are committed to actively promoting the conservation of our environment, through our own environmental practices, through our interactions within our community, and through our education and interpretation activities. Our commitment to the principles of ecotourism can be categorised under the following headings. 1. Environmentally Sustainable Practices Appropriate minimal impact codes identified and adopted All walking routes throughout the grounds of the centre are protected by gravel/asphalt paths and visitors are not encouraged to walk across the more vulnerable areas of the facility (particularly the wetland). A timber walkway has been constructed to allow visitors and particularly educational groups access to the wetland itself, while still protecting the fragile terrain. In order to minimise disturbance to the wildlife, the tour boats are propelled by electric engines which are virtually silent, as well as emission-free. Bird hides have been built at either end of the wetland to allow visitors to observe the bird life without impacting on it.

Captain Fenit Company Irish Volunteers, Co. Kerry; Brigade Staff Officer Kerry I Brigade. Subject. National activities Fenit-Tralee, Co. Kerry, 1913-1921. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil File No. S.2394 Form BSM2 STATEMENT OF PATRICK PAUL FITZGERALD Spa Road, Tralee, Co. Kerry. I was born on 29th June 1896, in Tralee. I was sent to the local National School until I was 15 years of age. When I left school I was apprenticed to the bakery trade. On the formation of the Volunteers in Tralee in the latter end of 1913 or early 1914, I became a member. The drill instructorsat the time were John Roche and Ned Leen, both ex-British soldiers. In all, there were four companies in the town of Tralee, A, B, C and D. The total strength was about 400 men. We paraded and drilled with wooden rifles throughout the year 1914. After John Redmond's speech at Woodenbridge in Co. Wicklow calling on the Volunteers to join the British army to defend the shores of Ireland, there was a split in the local battalion. A, B and D companies were opposed to Redmond's policy, but C Company were in favour and broke away from the battalion and ceased to take any further part in the activities of the Volunteers. We continued our parades and drills during the year 1915. Among the members of the Battalion Council at this time were Austin Stack, P.J.Cahill, Dan Healy and Fr.

  • Fenit Port & Marina
    Fenit Port & Marina For centuries the Old Port of Fenit was Barrow Harbour. The port was key in medieval times to monastic settlements in Ardfert. Blennerville Quay became the primary area port built in the middle of the 17th century until silting compromised its viability. Tralee Ship Canal, a town port was completed in 1846, superseding Blennerville, but before long silting and the increasing size of incoming ships doomed its viability. A deep-water port was established in Fenit in the late 1880’s. The modern-day Fenit Viaduct & Harbour was upgraded in the early 1950’s. The old wooden structure was replaced when it was discovered that during construction some wooden piles hadn’t been treated with creosote. The non-creosoted piles were damaged by sea worms and were rotting leaving the pier in a dangerous condition.2 The old wooden structure was replaced and opened in 1955. Fenit remains an important international port to this day, and the modern structure includes a deep sea pier of approximately 175 meters.
