Some place in the Shannon region well worth checking out…

1) The Cliffs of Moher

No visit to the Shannon region would be complete without a visit to the Cliffs of Moher. The cliffs are such a magical site to see and a wonderful place for a family trip. It is a quintessentially Irish spot.

The cliffs run for over 8km along the west coast of Ireland. Breathe in the crisp fresh air of the west coast while taking a relaxing walk or take a drive in your Shannon airport car hire taking in the sights at your own leisure.

The wonderfully picturesque village of Doolin is close and is worth stopping of in for a visit

2) Lahinch

Lahinch in C.O Clare is another exciting spot worthy of your attention. Home to a wonderful golf course and sea world leisure centre, there is something in Lahinch for all the family.

Those interested in trying their hand at surfing can take lessons at Lahinch Surf School. There are some great waves to catch and some good discounts available for groups.

There are plenty of trad sessions in the local pubs at night where you can sample an authentic Irish atmosphere.

3) Bunratty Castle

Bunratty castle and folk park are a must for any tourist exploring the Shannon region. It’s a fantastic place for learning about Irish history. The folk park features displays of Irish life centuries ago.

You can see villagers baking bread, sewing and making pottery. Another worthy option is signing up for the Earls Banquet. It is an authentic old time Irish meal with entertainment as would have been seen back in the day.
