Fahamore (Irish: An Fhaiche Mhór, meaning 'the big green')[1] is a townland and small hamlet/village on the Maharees peninsula in County Kerry.

A sea wall was built, probably in the 19th century, to prevent coastal erosion - it had limited success, as it now lies in pieces about 20m from the cliff edge - in the 1990s rock armour was put in place by Kerry County Council to protect the coast from Fahamore southwards for a distance of about two kilometers.

A list of local placenames and their origins is contained in the book "Triocha Cead Corca Dhuibhne" by Pádraig Ó Siochfhradha (An Seabhac).

The pier at Fahamore (situated on the western side of Scraggane Bay) is used during the summer months by the local fishing fleet, which consists of around 20 half-decked and decked boats in the range 7–15 metres.

Shellfish are typically stored in large wooden "storeboxes", which are moored in Scraggane Bay, until the day of selling, when they are transferred to "vivier" trucks for live export to Spain and France.

[citation needed] The fields around Fahamore are cultivated with vegetables including carrots, parsnips, swedes and onions, which thrive in the sandy soil.
