Top Reasons to Go

Atlantic Coast: County Clare’s slice of the Wild Atlantic Way driving route is 75 miles of mind-blowing seascapes, which peaks, literally, with the colossal Cliffs of Moher.

Galway City: With great restaurants, bars, shopping, and a vibrant arts scene throughout its cobbled medieval quarter, Galway is a lively city that loves to celebrate.

Dun Aengus, Aran Islands: Rivaling the Cliffs of Moher for its edge-of-the-world setting, Dun Aengus fort on Inis Mór, the largest of the Aran Islands, stands 100 meters high and barrier-free above the Atlantic Ocean.

The Burren Food Trail: Artisanal chocolatiers, cheese makers, confectioners, farmers, and beekeepers are harnessing the Burren’s unique landscape using age-old techniques, putting this UNESCO Global Geopark at the helm of Ireland’s emerging food scene.
