County Kerry ( Contae Chiarraí ) is in Southwest Ireland, and historically part of the province of Munster. With a population of 147,707 in 2016, Kerry is one of the most scenic and touristy parts of Ireland, because of its two mountainous peninsulas, Dingle and Iveragh. Jutting into the Atlantic Gulf Stream, these draw not only tourists but cloud, mist, copious rainfall and midges. Kerry therefore has well developed visitor facilities. : P70 : P8
