This region of Ireland (West Clare) is rich in archaeological remains, geology, history and legend as well as being regarded as a golfers paradise. These popular attractions that must be visited are the majestic Cliffs of Moher (3 miles), Allwee caves (10 miles), The Burren (6 miles), Poulnabrone Dolmen (10 miles) or take the boat from the pier in Doolin to the Aran Islands and experience the last outpost of gaelic civilization where irish is still the spoken language. Worldwide famous golf courses nearby are Lahinch (links), Doonbeg (links) and Ballybunion (links) to name but a few.
Doolin is renowned worldwide for its wealth of irish music and song. Home to thousands of international visitors each year, Doolin is many things to many people. For some it is a place to experience rousing music sessions nightly in the pub and for others it is a place of solitude and tranquility where one can refresh their spirits away from the everyday hustle and bustle of life.
