From the wind-whipped tip of Malin Head in County Donegal to the balmy beauty of Kinsale in County Cork, the west of Ireland WOWS with epic landscapes and captivates in its quiet moments. This is a place that has inspired dreamers, drifters, poets and painters, with a landscape laced with dry-stone walls, thatched cottages, brooding mountains and deserted beaches. Enjoy an off-the-beaten-track adventure on the edge of Europe.
It’s easy to feel the wildness that defines this coastline – it’s everywhere, from sheer cliffs that plunge into crashing Atlantic waves to remote, weather-beaten islands. But the west of Ireland is about more than that – it’s about moments of connection. It’s the chat from locals, the warmth of a fire-lit pub, the tapping feet of a traditional music session. The essence of the Wild Atlantic Way runs deep.
