Editing Ventry (section)

==Ventry Bay==
The bay or harbour is a suitable anchorage for sailing and fishing boats. On 4 October 1939, {{GS|U-35|1936|6}} entered Ventry Bay and landed 28 Greek sailors of the ''MV Diamantis''. Their ship had been torpedoed by a [[U-boat]]. The event was commemorated with a plaque in October 2009. Guests at the plaque unveiling included the then German Ambassador to Ireland, the mayor of the [[Oinousses]] Islands in the Aegean, as well as members of London's Greek shipping community.<ref>{{cite web|url = http://www.kerryman.ie/local-notes/west-kerry-local-recalls-u35-landing-perished-sailors-in-ventry-1919692.html?start=2 | title = West Kerry: Local recalls U-35 landing 'perished' sailors in Ventry | date = 21 October 2009| work = The Kerryman | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20120217194149/http://www.kerryman.ie/local-notes/west-kerry-local-recalls-u35-landing-perished-sailors-in-ventry-1919692.html?start=2 | archivedate = 17 February 2012 }}</ref>
