Today we visit Ballynacourty (or Baile na Cuairte) means ‘Place of the Rivelet’. It’s a beautifully peaceful location for a grave yard, but unfortunately the grave yard itself is not in great shape but it has to be one of the most scenic graveyards I've ever seen.
Filled with grass covered vaults and surrounded by mountains, just a short drive from Dingle, making this place the most serene graveyard.
We start at Tom Creans pub, that's still in use today.
I also visited the grave of Tom Crean the unsung hero and Antarctic explorer, Tom Crean who was born in Annascaul in 1877 and was part of three expeditions to the Antarctic, including Ernest Shackleton's infamous Endurance expedition in 1914-1916. Tom Crean died in 1938 and was buried here in the Ballinacourty Cemetery.

My GOD WHAT A MANLY MAN and he was good looking too. I'm wondering just how Tom survived the freezing weather. for sure they didn't have gortex coats or north pole wear. He truly is the meaning of courageous bold and stayed true to his dream didn't he. I never heard of him or learn about him in history class. What a pity,but I'm sure he didn't do all of that for fame. Sue ,thank you and GV for a piece of Ireland's history. Beautiful yhere .

Sad Tom wasn't born in this day and age and now I'm going to be one selfish and born in the STATES because He could made a heck of a president in 2020 even if he ran on the democratic ticket surely I don't imagine he you crumble and run and hide when times got tough here and I would like to think any man that could stand that journey the freezing cold and all of the obstacles to get there would make an EXCELLENT LEADER . But Im just dreaming as it clearly states on his resting place the SEA WAS Definitely HIS HOME . And I don't know much about your leader pros or cons but ahhh to dream lol

They dont make men like him anymore, i could imagine how tough it must of been back then compared to now the only had wooden boats . Todays fisherman and explorers have metal ice breaking boats they can go as far as needed now. In todays world it is truly sad and depressing, we no longer have heroes to look up to like the incredible things TOM has done and accomplished in his life. Todays teens the next generation has already shown us they are incapable of any kind of responsibility or moving are country forward in a positive way, its very sad when some have lost basic common sense when teens and adults cant even define what a man or woman is. *One thing i do know That is 100% that There Is One Truth One Way and one life. He will never leave you or forsake you, he is there all the time and he is the only one that can assure you of his everlasting kingdom in heaven. We are here a short time as we all can see, this is not our home, heaven is our home and eternal glory with the lord Eternity is forever, all we need to do is repent and belive with all thy heart sole and mind, its a free gift from God.

Tom Crean is a hero of mine. He enriched the lives of everyone who knew him. He saved others and yet was so humble. You could not wish for a truer friend than him. It is SO sad that he died at such a young age. I wish that a statue could be put up to him. May he have eternal peace and happiness.

Galway. I helped manouvre it as it was being taken off the truck after transportation

Hi Serenity Sue. Wow, what a story. What a Humble and Handsome man Tom Crean was. He was so adventurous and strong. I'm happy he came back and got married and started a family. He sure has a lot to be proud of. It's a shame he passed away so young. He accomplished a lot. I'd love to come to Ireland and visit. It's on my Bucket list. Thank you for sharing this Amazing story. I loved the picture of him with those puppies. He looked like the quiet man you described. May he and his family rest in peace 🕊️. I just love your accent both you and your husband are Amazing, thank you for All you do. My spouse passed away and I sure do miss the wonderful times we shared together. God bless and stay safe ❤️ 🙏 👍

What a glorious last resting place. Tom Crean was a handsome man. Sad his life ended the way it did with no Dr to operate. Sounds like our health system 2023 in New Zealand. Also sad his young daughter Katy died so young. A great man for sure. Thanks for taking us there with you.
