The west coast is actually the most rugged. The steep and indented cliffs, which are deeply buried into the ground, drop into the Atlantic Ocean, which dominates the island. Deep fjords and bays are abound on this side of the coast, Dingle Bay, which runs into Kerry and is shaped by glacial erosion, is very impressive. These natural ports are particularly deep, Bantry Bay has the deepest anchorage in Western Europe.
