Clare is a county in the West that once visited you’ll never forget. From the momentous sheer cliff face of the Cliffs of Moher to the mystical lunar landscape of the Burren, Clare’s natural attractions earn your respect from the moment you set eyes on them. 

The county is spoiled with a wealth of exceptional scenic delights, from the rugged charm of the wind and wave-lashed Atlantic coastline, to the famous River Shannon and Lough Derg. 

Clare’s charming villages reel you in with atmospheric local pubs, excellent traditional music, and laid-back locals, while the county is a hive of outdoor activity with watersports, surfing, angling, golf, horse riding, walking and cycling. Visit Clare and you’ll never be short of something to do.
