Sybil Point and Sybil Head are said to be named after Sybil Lynch, and near Doon Point a stump of masonry is all that remains of Sybil Castle, also known as Ferriter's Castle. In fact, they were named earlier than her time but the story is worth reco Ceann Sibéal is the 1043th highest summit in Ireland.

Three Sisters and Ceann Sibeal

by Mo 17 Aug 2012 Starting in Smerwick, we climbed Binn Diarmada the furthest north of the Three Sisters and then all the way over to Ceann Sibeal (Sybil Head). Pretty dramatic cliffs as already noted. It was very windy so we stayed well back form the cliffs. This meant that we had to climb a lot of fences / ditches and barbed wire which made for slow progress. Amazing that all of these headlands are in a direct line, from Ballydavid Head across the bay, through the Three sisters, Ceann Sibeal and out to the pinnacle on Inis Tuaisceart.
