Wild Atlantic Way

Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way is classed as one of the world’s most astonishing natural landscapes. From soaring jagged cliffs to majestic crashing waves, Ireland’s organic beauty is showcased masterfully in this 2,600km stretch.

The Wild Atlantic Way is a haven for many natural features- seascapes, sea-life, cliffs, sea stacks, lagoons, rocky islets and beaches, to name but a few. It is a place to experience nature at its finest. Places of wonder such as the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, Connemara, Dingle and Killarney National Park but the name a few, speckle the Atlantic coast, but these are only a minute fraction of the points of discovery along the seaside stretch.

The Wild Atlantic Way tourism trail passes through nine counties and three provinces and the entire route is easily accessible by car. The Wild Atlantic Coast continues to morph into different formations as the formidable stormy weather and sublime Irish sea meets Ireland’s majestic coast.  Cliffs become more jagged and natural wonders of the sea begin to formulate, forever growing into one of the world’s most exalted coasts.
