An Triúr Deirféar ( The Three Sisters in Irish , English The Three Sisters ) is a series of three hills at the northwestern end of the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry , Ireland .

The hills are directly on the coast, north of the village of Baile an Fheirtéaraigh (English Ballyferriter ), at the southeast end of the bay Cuan Ard na Caithne (English Smerwick Harbor ). The highest point, Binn Diarmada , reaches 153 m.

Viewed from the north, the three elevations form a striking row, which is likely to have led to the name. From west to east they are individually referred to as Binn Hanrai ( Beenhenry ), Binn Meanach ( Beenmanagh ) and Binn Diarmada ( Terminermot ).
