It's been a few years since we stayed in Dingle........but when we did we were told if you made an effort to put some sort of a parking ticket on the windscreen.......you were pretty much left alone. We stayed over two nights running and displayed a parking ticket and we weren't too early leaving....no problems. However....that was a few years ago.....it may have changed since.
The only negative was.......we were out of water and found a tap and hose along the quay. There was a couple of fishermen working on a trawler and I asked if I could get some water.......no problem ' help yourself ' which we did. A few minutes into the fill a guy came running up and told me to take the hose out immediately and what did I think I was doing.? I said it was obvious and at this point the guys working on the trawler started giving him a hard time and told him I had asked. He still wasn't impressed but I got me water. Tuned out later he was the harbour master......welcome to Dingle
