Irish tourists view Kerry as the best location for staycations.

That's according to a new survey by Empathy Research, which asked people to pick their preferred destination in Ireland, compared to the foreign destination they usually prefer.

36% of people who usually enjoy a sunny coastal break to the Portuguese Algarve view Inch Strand and Ballybunion as the best Irish alternative.

People picked Galway as their preferred Irish alternative to a city break in Las Vegas or New York, while the Aran Islands were chosen as the best island holiday in Ireland.
