Bamboo Park is a private garden east of Glengarriff village, set above the bay with paths through bamboo, palms, and other plants that enjoy the mild, wet West Cork climate. It is quieter than Garinish Island and easier to fit into a spare hour.
The pleasure here is not a single famous view but the contrast: exotic planting, Atlantic weather, and the dark water of Bantry Bay below. It works well if you have already done the island or if boat sailings are not running.
