The Best Things to Do in the West of Ireland and Galway.
The Wild Atlantic Way
while not exactly an attraction in itself, the Wild Atlantic Way is more of a magical highway to Ireland’s more remarkable offerings. Set along 2,500 kilometers of Ireland’s magnificent west coast, Galway is pretty much smack dab in the middle of it all and is the only city on the entire 2500 km route. Head north to reach Malin Head at the very tip of the land, or far south to get to Kinsale Harbour.
Cliffs of Moher
one of the country’s most beloved natural features, these dramatic cliffs tower over the rugged west Clare coast. Walk the safe and paved pathways, view the famous Cliffs on Europe’s western frontier and enjoy the spectacular vistas over the Atlantic Ocean and the Aran Islands. The natural beauty of this area has inspired artists, musicians, and poets for generations, as well as absorbing scientists and geologists, drawn by the unique landscape in which they sit. These cliffs will leave you awestruck, creating memories that will stay with you forever.
The Aran Islands
due to its Celtic and Christian heritage, the Aran Islands have a high number of ruins and sacred sights. Holy Ireland, the island of saints and scholars has historically centered around Celtic and Christian lore. By simply exploring or being on the Aran Islands, one is on their way to connecting with their spiritual inner self. These islands hold a strong spiritual appeal expressed in many ways for a diverse range of people.
The Burren
the expansive, moon-like Burren in County Clare is one of the country’s most compelling landscapes. Here one will find cool grey rock etched with crevices and cracks tumbling down to the wild blue Atlantic. The result is one of nature’s most amazing phenomena: a huge rocky pavement dotted with rock formations, caves and fossils, as well as an incredible array of flowers, from native species to Alpine, Arctic, and Mediterranean plants.
Connemara
there are quite a lot of reasons that Connemara and its soaring national park are a focal point in endless romantic folk songs and rural imaginations. Its hearty slopes and ramshackle towns practically beg you to hike, ride, and dig deep into the ancient culture. It is an area of desolate beauty, incredible scenery, and interesting attractions. Near the coast, a stunning unpolluted coastline of sandy beaches and blue waters await.
Best Things to Do in Galway City
Galway City known as the “City of the Tribes,”
referring to 14 merchant families (most were Anglo-Norman) who controlled the trade and politics in Galway from the 13th to the 19th centuries. What is exciting is that there are hints of the tribes to be found even today. Places such as Lynch’s Castle, a 16th century fortified limestone abode with the Lynch coat of arms emblazoned on its front.
No visit to Galway would be complete without going to the Latin quarter. An inviting district of wonderful cobblestone streets in Galway’s old centre, the Latin Quarter is located on the left bank of the River Corrib and is the central hub of the city’s best pubs, bars, restaurants, galleries, and shops. Street performers and other entertainers provide authentic Irish background entertainment as you window shop, see the sights, and bar-hop.
Galway, Gateway to the West
Galway
Just up from the Latin Quarter is Galway’s main space, Eyre Square. What was originally a green space with markets in front of the old gates is today a thriving modern plaza. The Quincentennial Fountain is the shining focal point; an abstract depiction of one of Galway’s typical “Hooker” sailboats. The 14 tribes are also represented with flags bearing each family’s colours. Just to the south is Eyre Square Centre, a shopping mecca with more than 70 high street chains and eateries.
The Galway City Museum, located behind the Spanish Arch, traces the history of the city in meticulous detail. All the way from prehistoric Galway to the 20th century. With three floors of exhibits to peruse, the topics covered include everything from archaeology to oceanography in the context of Galway. It also houses interactive exhibits to keep the little ones entertained. If you are a history buff, plan to spend several hours here.
Galway is also widely known for its festivals and events, with huge crowds gathering for the famous Galway International Arts Festival, the Galway Races, first started in 1869, the great Macnas Halloween Parade and lots other events all around the year.
