CLIFFS OF MOHER
Ireland's most visited natural attraction. Located in County Clare, the Cliffs of Moher are roughly 3 hours from Dublin. They stretch for 8km along the Atlantic coast. A must see if you are on the west coast!
GLENDALOUGH
This is probably one of the most popular places in Ireland for walks and hikes. It is a glaciated valley that has many different lakes, nature trails, and forests. Great for a day trip if you're spending time on the east coast.
GALWAY CITY
A very nice small city on the west coast with delicious food choices and beautiful beaches to explore. It is a very popular place to visit and is a 2.5 hour drive from Cabra Castle. Eyre Square, Quay Street, and Shop street are popular spots to grab a drink, local fresh food and listen to traditional Irish music. Highly recommended by the groom as he's a Galway man!
CONNEMARA
Connemara is a district in western Ireland, facing the Atlantic. Its coastline has tiny coves, bays and fishing villages like Roundstone. Connemara National Park is a vast expanse of mountains, bogs, heathland and lakes. The park is also home to a herd of Connemara ponies. The area’s main town, Clifden, has several venues for traditional Irish music. Here, too, are the ruins of Gothic Revival–style Clifden Castle
DINGLE PENINSULA
Dingle is located in County Kerry, in the Southwest of Ireland. Another hugely popular destination for tourists due to its amazing food and beautiful scenery. If you decide to make the trip to Dingle, it is essential that you go on the beat to see Fungie - Ireland's most famous dolphin. Rumor has it that if you take the boat tour to see Fungie and don't see him, your money is returned! Tours last roughly an hour long.
