According to locals Dingle is having its busiest tourist season for 2 decades. Thanks to staycationers. Meanwhile, the world famous Dolphin, Fungi, is still missing. After 37 years of bringing tourism to the Kerry village, Fungi has disappeared. He hasn't been spotted since October last year. Henry McKean boarded Dingle Dolphin Tours and went looking for Fungi with the skipper and sent us this report. Check out @DingleDolphinTours on Social media or dingledolphin.com
