Ahakista is located approximately halfway along the Sheep's Head peninsula between Durrus and Kilcrohane in County Cork, Ireland. It is a wooded coastal village with a deep and sheltered harbour.
The Air India Memorial Garden is located at Ahakista, and each June the local community remembers the terrorist attack of 1985 that resulted in the deaths of over 300 people. On Sunday 23 June 1985 just after 08:00 in the morning, an Air India Boeing 747, flying from Canada to India with 329 people on board, was approaching the southwest coast of Ireland when it was blown apart by a bomb, killing everyone on board.
