The Wild Atlantic Way is known as the longest defined coastal road in the world. The Wild Atlantic Way, a 2500km route travelling from West Cork to Donegal, has been a huge success since it's launch . The route travels along the rugged atlantic coast of Ireland, taking in all the amazing scenery, tourist attractions, villages,... But although it has been huge since it's launch, it is nothing new. The roads have always been there, the amazing scenery hasn't changed in 100's of years , but the launch of the Wild Atlantic Way was a stroke of genius. We have travelled it numerous times, and we can confirm it will give you an unforgettable experience. So what can you expect? Amazing scenery: Tourist attractions: There are many spectacular tourist attractions along the Wild Atlantic Way - from stately homes like Westport House, Bantry House and Lissadell House to imposing castles like Glenveagh Castle and Bunratty castle, there is something new to discover every day of the week. Prefer delving even further into Ireland's history, visit places like the Ceide fields in Mayo or Dun Aonghasa on the Aran Islands. Plan your trip by visiting websites like heritage Ireland or discover Ireland Great food and accommodation: Ireland's food scene has made huge strides in the last 10 years and is comparable with some of the best in the world. With the Atlantic on the doorstep, fresh shellfish and fish is readily available. But there is a great selection of food producers who produce some of the best cheeses, meat, honey,... Along the route, you find loads of waypoints which are well signposted. Each waypoint is clearly marked with the WAW sign and a sign with factoids. All we can say is pack your bags, book your flights or ferry and plan your trip through the official website www.wildatlanticway.com

On a stormy day in February, we rolled into Rosses Point where the views towards oyster Island and beyond were limited due to the teeming rain and waterspray of the waves. So, as it was lunchtime, we decided to head into the little cottage cafe located in Rosses Point. It is a lovely renovated cottage in the village of Rosses point along the seafront, outside were the signs of early daffodils against the wall of the cottage. It was busy enough inside and most of the 10 or so tables were taken up by customers. A small Stanley stove on one side of the room was lit and the glow and heat from the burning woodlogs warmed us up straight away. The menu is varied and will provide a good food selection for everyone's palate. There is also the daily specials which are displayed on a board behind the counter. I went for the little cottage smokies, a little pot of naturally smoked Duncannon haddock with creme fraiche cherry tomato, spring onion, melted Dublin cheddar and dressed organic lea.s, all served with toasted brown bread. At €8, great value in our eyes. Dolores went for the chicken flatbread, a large piece of homemade flatbread with spiced marinated chicken , dressed rocket, salad of red onion , lemon, chickpea and feta, all for €11.50 . Other items you can find on the menu are sandwiches, an Irish chorizo & bean hot pot and little cottage sourdough bruchetta. For drinks, we went for a latte and a pot of tea, all of which were piping hot which is great. I hate it when you get a luke warm coffee/latte , but at the little cottage cafe, they were perfectly served.
As for the food, I loved my little "hot" pot of haddock which was nicely accompanied by toasted brown bread. Dolores loved her chicken too. To me, her dish looked on the dry side, but when i tasted it, I must admit I couldn't be more wrong. The salad of red onion and feta cheese made the chicken flatbread dish even tastier, and there was nothing to fault regarding any of the food or drinks. With the total bill around €24 , we can highly recommend " the little cottage cafe" While driving along a quiet country road through the Burren, I admired the many stone walls which had been built around the many fields, all of them which were to my amazement stone free. You have to know, the Burren in co.Clare are a karst limestone plateau, and wherever you look, you see stones, stones and more stones. Those walls must have been painstakingly built over many years, maybe even handed down from generation to generation. At that moment, I noticed a sign to Poulnabrone tomb, so decided to park the car and investigate it further. Walking towards the tomb, information signs explained about the tomb, the landscape , the flora and fauna.
The tomb itself is a classic example of a portal tomb, flanking the entrance to a rectangular stone lined chamber which is covered by a single large capstone. When Poulnabrone tomb was excavated in the mid 80's ( The days when Duran Duran, Queen,The Cure, The Police ,... were huge and probably were being played on a walkman or cassette player when the excavation was being carried out ), it was revealed that at least 33 individuals were buried in the chamber of the tomb. The bones , which were badly defragmented, were from adults and kids, both male and female. It is believed that the bones were buried somewhere else and were transferred afterwards to the tomb. Personal possessions buried with the dead included beads, axes, flint weapons,..... Ireland has a rich history and there are a lot of Neolithic tombs spread across Ireland. Back in the car, I took off again on my journey admiring the landscape of the Burren while listening to an 80's classic, " walking on the moon" (The Police) , which couldn't be any closer to the landscape I had been walking through. I has visited the Cliffs of Moher before, I had proposed on top of the Cliffs of Moher to my other half, so decided to pay them a visit again. So what are the main facts about the Cliffs: a) They are designated as a special protected area (SPA) under the EU Birds Directive 1979. b) The cliffs are the home to Ireland's largest mainland seabird nesting colony. c) They rise up to 214m at the highest point d) They cover a range of 8km e) Beneath the cliffs if the famous Aileen's wave, producing up to 30ft waves f) One of the sea caves at the bottom of the cliffs was used in Harry potter & the half blood prince My first walk was towards o'Brien's tower. This tower was built in 1835 by Cornelius O'Brien as a viewing point for tourists. And on the day i visited the Cliffs of Moher, the sun was beaming down on the 100's of tourists visiting these majestic cliffs although it was only mid February. After o'brien's tower, I decided to walk towards the South platform and beyond so i would get great views of An Branan Mor (Sea Stack).
This seastack stands at 67 m tall and was once part of the cliffs, but coastal erosion slowly removed the layers of rock joining it to the mainland. After my walk, I decided to head into the visitor centre building which opened it's doors in 2007. The centre is set into the hill minimizing the visual impact. Within the centre, you can enjoy the cliff exhibition or watch the 2 short movies " The Clare Journey" or the " ledge experience". There is also a restaurant and a tourist souvenir shop. On a beautiful Saturday morning, I decided to head off to co.Clare. So jumped in the car at 7am and reached Kinvara at around 9.20am. First stop, Dunguaire Castle, a castle built in 1520 by the O'Hynes Clan. Unfortunately , like most tourist attractions in Ireland, the castle is only open to visitors between April and mid September. So i just walked around the fortified castle along the path where I enjoyed the crisp morning air and watched birds wading along the shores. The next 2 stops along the Wild Atlantic Way are Taught Beach and Flaggy Shore. Taught beach is a Blue flag beach popular with families in the summer, Flaggy Shore is the perfect location to see limestone pavements and fossils that are embedded in the rocks and enjoy the views as far as Connemara and Galway. Carrying on my journey towards the Cliffs Of Moher, i passed Fanore Beach, an amazing sandy beach flanked by impressive sand dunes. The Caher river, the only river in the Burren which flows it's entire lenght above ground, is flanked by this blue flag beach. Leaving this amazing spot, I travelled further while enjoying the views as far as Connemara and the Arran islands. I had heard reports that the waves at Doolin Pier were good, so decided to make a detour. The waves, flanked by the rising cliffs on the opposite site of Doolin pier and the sun shining down on the waves combined with the blue skies reminded me more of Hawaii/ Madeira rather than Ireland. After a refreshing break, I carried on my travels to reach the Cliffs of Moher car park. The car park is €6 for a car, problem was that there was only 1 paybooth opened which meant that there was a significant enough traffic queue to get into it. My advise is to park in Doolin and hike towards the Cliffs of Moher along the Cliffs of Moher coastal walk . Once parked up, I hiked along to cliffs and enjoyed the Cliffs of Moher visitor Centre building. To get more detail on the Cliffs of Moher, read the following blog (Cliffs of Moher) Afterwards, I headed toward Lahinch, a popular surf town in Co.Clare. The beach is perfect for surfers starting off, and there were at least 50 students in the water enjoying the clear waters of the Atlantic. From here, i turned back homewards, but not without taking a detour to Kilfenora , the gateway to the amazing Burren. The Burren is one of Ireland's 6 National Parks. The Burren are dominated by a Karst landscape, and the landscape is composed of limestone pavements with cracks known as "grikes". These cracks are the perfect location for flowers to bloom and you will find in Spring and summer an abundant amount of flowers ranging from arctic, Mediterranean and alpine flowers. The Burren visitor centre was closed , so I decided to have a look at Vaughan's pub. The pub featured in the Father Ted episode "Are you right there father Ted?" . My last stop for the day was Poulnabrone Dolmen, probably one of Ireland's most photographed portal Dolmen.
I enjoyed co.Clare immensely , the weather turned out to be amazing, the only 2 issues not relating to co.Clare, but in general is that all tourist attractions are closed until April, the second one was that i wasn't able to get any stamps for my Wild Atlantic Way passport as Post Offices close at 1pm. When i asked the information desk at 1 of Irelands major tourist attractions (Cliffs of Moher) if they had the stamps, the answer was no. County Mayo never fails to surprise. And this time was no different, we headed to Achill Island . Achill Island is the largest island of the coast of Ireland, but can be reached by a bridge connecting the mainland with Achill Sound. The Island is marked by rugged mountains, peat bogs and tall sea cliffs, and how can we forget, blue flag beaches. Our final destination on the Island was Keem Strand, a secluded beach at the very western tip of Achill. So when we arrived at Achill Island, we rolled across the bridge into Achill Sound. We entered the tourist office and post office to get some further stamps in our Wild Atlantic Way passport. After the village , we turned left onto the L1405. First stop, Wild Atlantic Waypoint "An cheibh bheag" or Cloghmore pier at Kildavnet. From the pier, you are able to take a ferry to Clare island. There is also Grace O'Malley's castle, a 15th century tower house. It is believed that the famous pirate queen Grace O'Malley established the castle while she reigned the waters during the 16th century. The tower is 12m in height and has 3 storeys. You can enter the tower, and that allowed us to take a break, admire the bay and use the opportunity for taking some pictures Carrying on, we headed around the headland where we were welcomed with views towards Clare Island. The sea was rough, the waves were amazing and crashed against the rocks with all their power. Further down the road, we reached Ashleam Bay which is flanked by White Cliffs. This is another waypoint "Cuan na hAisleime". From the vantage point, you have some sharp hairpin bends which bring you closer towards the pebble beach where the waves were crashing onto the shore. Carrying on our journey, we reached the main road again where we turned towards Keel . When driving around Achill Island, you will recognize some of the scenery from the blockbuster movie "Banshees of Inisherin" which was filmed on Achill Island. We can only imagine how many additional tourists will visit this stunning part of Ireland. One thing we noticed is how many sheep roam freely along the roads on Achill Island, even in the village of Keel, sheep were wandering along the roads. Keel was very quiet as we drove through it, probably because it was early February, but it looks like a summer destination where the population probably expands 10 folded as it is flanked by an amazing beach which invites you to participate in the many watersports on offer. In order to reach Keem strand, you have to follow the spectacular clifftop road which leaves Keel. The views across the Atlantic Ocean are amazing and we were lucky, getting close to Keem Bay, the sun decided to break through the clouds and give us an amazing display of colours , from the azure blue of the water to the white sand of Keem Strand. The bay is horseshoe shaped and is flanked on either side by cliffs. This bay was used for a booming fishing industry and the local boats "Currach" were used in the fishing industry. The waters around Achill Island are frequented by Basking sharks and it was these sharks which were once caught between the 1950's and 1980's.
And Keem strand was the end of our Achill adventure. Achill Island is an amazing spot, from the crashing waves onto the shore to the white blue flag beaches, but it is Keem Strand where you can look out over the vast expanse of water, enjoy the amazing display of colours and believe you are the only person on Achill Island. Again probably because it was February, looking at the amount of carpark space, Keem Strand is a popular spot during the summer months. It was one of these typical Irish autumn mornings, one minute the sun beams down, the next it starts raining. The great thing about these days is that you get an amazing display of rainbows. On this morning, we decided to go to Strandhill, enjoy the waves crashing against the rocks and go for a nice breakfast in Shell's cafe. Inside Shell's cafe was busy enough with people enjoying their breakfast on this blustery day. The decor is inviting and cosy, and it didn't take long to warm ourselves up again. I ordered the Eggs benedict , Dolores ordered Eggs Arnold. For drinks, it was a tea and a spicy pumpkin latte . The eggs benedict came out on a home baked slice of bread, tickly sliced ham and 2 lovely poached eggs . The yokes from the eggs were dark orange, so they must have been free range eggs, all covered with lovely Hollandaise sauce. The eggs Arnold were presented on a fresh slice of bread. There was smoked salmon and 2 freshly poached eggs. We both enjoyed our breakfast and stayed around for a good while. After our breakfast, we went in the gift shop which is connected to Shells cafe and looked at all the great books and gift and food they have on display.
Afterwards, we took a small detour to Rosses point where we got welcomed with a rainbow display. Mullaghmore is a small fishing village in Co.Sligo. Nearby the village is an amazing blue flag beach. The waters are always calm at the beach due to it's sheltered nature. But make your way around the headland and witness the power of the Atlantic Ocean. And in the last few years, Mullaghmore has established itself as one of the best big wave locations in the world. When the weather conditions are right, a lot of the best big wave surfers head over to Mullaghmore to enjoy some Tow-in surfing. But Mullaghmore has more than just surfing. Any water based sport can be done around the headland, from sailing to coasteering to fishing.
Feeling hungry afterwards,head to Mullaghmore village and enjoy a mouthwatering meal at Eithnas seafood restaurant. Try the oven baked fillet of hake or the Mullaghmore wild Atlantic lobster, some of the daily specials which can be found on the menu. Afterwards, walk around the headland admiring the amazing sunsets and views as far as Slieve League in Donegal. Parke's castle is situated in an idyllic location on the shores of Lough Gill in County Leitrim. Originally, it all started with a tower house. It's foundation can still be seen in the courtyard. When the Spanish Armada was shipwrecked at grange, captain Francisco de Cuellar was given refuge at O'Rourke's castle. Eventually, he returned back to Spain and wrote about O'Rourke's hospitality. When the English found out, they sent forces to destroy the tower , captured O'Rourke and executed him. Afterwards, the tower was demolished by captain Robert Parke who used the stone to built a 3 storey fortified manor house. The castle is lovingly restored by the OPW and showcases an amazing Irish Oak roof using techniques of the 17th Century. There is also a family room showcasing on how Robert Parke would have lived. There is a museum showcasing vernacular buildings of the North West and the displays give a great insight on how the people used to live in rural Ireland. In the yard, you can find stone buildings, one of them being transformed into a blacksmith, one turned into toilets,... There is also a waterwell and within the gardens close to the shore of Lough Gill, there is a small sweathouse.
The Castle is worth a visit and will keep the kids occupied. The views across Lough Gill are amazing, that is when it is a clear day. After having competed in Gaelforce West, we were tired and hungry. And we hadn't booked a dinner table either, so it would be difficult enough to find a table on a Saturday evening during the summer holiday period. We had ones eaten before in La Bella Vita on High Street, so we decided to try our luck and see if they had a table available. We were in luck, we entered the restaurant and we were told there was a table for 2, only condition was that we would give the table back for 9pm. After browsing through the menu, we decided to go with the fresh fish which was on the daily menu, monkfish for me and Dolores would take Hake. When we ordered, we were asked if we wanted a starter as well, but as we had to give the table back at 9pm, we told our waitress we would stick with the main course. But we were told that there was plenty of time to try one of the starters, so we decided we would share an antipasto Italiano. The restaurant itself is cosy and inviting. We were placed upstairs in a small room which had books on a shelf and a fireplace. The restaurant was full, and that is always a good sign. And to celebrate us finishing Gaelforce West, we picked a great bottle of Italian wine as well. And then the antipasto Italiano arrived, fresh lettuce, dressing, salami, ham freshly baked bread, olives... we enjoyed it thoroughly. And then came our mains, fish as fresh as can be. The monkfish and hake were both cooked to perfection, both came with a salad and roasted potatoes with rosemary. We enjoyed the food and would love to recommend La Bella Vita. If you are after fresh fish and fresh ingredients, this is the place to be.
And although we were told to leave the table by 9 pm, we never felt rushed by our waitress. The staff are very professional and very friendly and we are grateful they managed to give us a table. We ended a great day and night at Matt Molloy's where we met loads of the other competitors. A nice pint was taken while discussing the days events while listening to some traditional Irish music. Link: La Bella Vita Website As part of our Wild Atlantic Way pages we wanted to create on www.outdoorfitnesssligo.com , we decided to take a day trip to county Mayo, targeting the north coast from Ballina to Belmullet. And we decided to stop at all the Wild Atlantic Way Discovery points . First stop, Killala Quays. it was still early in the morning, so it was quiet in killala. From Killala, we followed the coastal road towards Lackan Strand. Lackan Strand is another Discovery Point along the Wild Atlantic Way. Lackan strand looks out onto the Atlantic offering breathtaking views as far as Sligo and Donegal. Next on route was Downpatrick Head. Downpatrick Head used and still is an important pilgrim destination. St Patrick founded a church here, ruins can still be seen within the landscape. The very spectacular sea-stack is called Dún Briste. Many birds can be seen breeding along the rocks of this stack. There are also multiple blowholes, the largest one being Poll Na Seantainne which on a stormy day is spectacular. Afterwards, we headed towards the Ceide Fields in Ballycastle. Here, you can enjoy the views towards dramatic cliffs along the Co.Mayo coast. The Ceide Fields visitor centre (https://www.outdoorfitnesssligo.com/blog/ceide-fields-neolithic-site) is worthwhile a visit. They are the oldest known field systems in the world. The remains of the stone walls, houses,.. are buried under the huge layer of peat. After the Ceide Fields, we headed towards our next discovery point, Benwee Head. Benwee Head is the ideal location for walking as you have waymarked walks along the cliff edges with spectacular views of the Wild Atlantic ocean. After having stretched our legs, we headed towards Belmullet where we had to cover our next 5 Discovery points. After a stop in Belmullet's Post office, where we got our Wild Atlantic Way passport stamped, we headed towards blacksod. On the way to Blacksod, you pass another discovery point called Elly Beach , a fine beach with the clearest waters suitable for swimming and watersports. From here, it is a short drive to Blacksod lighthouse which was built in 1862. In June 1944, a decision was made to go ahead with the D-Day landings based on a detailed weather report from Blacksod Bay. The lighthouse itself is spectacular as it is built from massive granite blocks. Afterwards, it was back direction Belmullet in order to visit Falmore. Here , you find a granite boulder sculpture that was created as part of the sculpture trail in County Mayo. The views toward Achill Island are impressive. Heading back towards Belmullet, we visited Annagh Head. Here, we found ourselves surrounded by sheep, which in our view must be the happiest sheep on the planet due to the fact that they have some of the most amazing views towards the Atlantic Ocean with not a soul in the vicinity. Annagh Head is home to some of the oldest rocks on Ireland. The ancient rock called Gneiss is millions of years old and is similar to the ones found in Greenland. Afterwards, we headed towards Doonamoe Blowhole, another discovery point. Here you will find another sculpture which is called 'Thin Places' and is build around the blowhole.. It is two shrines dedicated to those Lost at Sea. Our last stop of the day was Ceann iorrais, an amazing location for walks and watching sealife. And right in front of us was a tiny seal who just came to say goodbye when we said goodbye to county Mayo after enjoying an amazing daytrip along the Wild Atlantic Way
While in Dublin , we decided to pop into the National Museum of Ireland - Natural history. Currently only the groundfloor and first floor of the museum are open to the public, the two upper floors are closed for safety reasons. But don't worry, you can visit the floors through a 3D virtual visit on the website. So what is the museum about? The museum showcases a comprehensive zoological collection . The museum is a thing of a fargone era, one where television didn't exist and people didn't go on farflung holidays where they would get to see exotic animals. So how spectacular must it have been when the museum opened it's doors to the public in 1857, and people could see actual elephants, giraffes,seals,...eventhough they are displayed in glass cabinets and were dead. For me, it is the building which makes this museum. I rather see animals alive than displayed in glass cabinets, but the collection on display is huge and is interesting nonetheless. When you walk into the groundfloor hall, you are straightaway greeted by 2 huge Irish Elk skeletons. In the museum, there is something new to see around each corner. From the basking shark suspended from the ceiling to the butterflies to the cute seals, you find them all. And like I said before, for me it is the building which really sets this museum apart. From the old wooden/glass display cabinets to the solid wooden creaking floorboards, this museum is old. On the first floor, it is even more spectacular (in a creepy way). The beautiful crafted balconies and glass roof can't hide the 100's of animal heads on display on the walls. The large whale bones suspended from the ceiling are huge, nonetheless the moose, giraffe and elephant stand out due to their imposing height. The museum of Ireland - natural history is worth a visit, one which will appeal to children. The building itself is fabulous , and we forgot to mention that this museum is free as well.
I found myself with my dad in Dublin for the Holiday Show at the RDS, so we decided to spoil ourselves with a Saturday lunch at Asador located at Haddington Road, Dublin 4. Asador is a BBQ restaurant which is located in a modern brick building on a corner not to far from the Grand canal. From the moment you walk in and you are shown to your table, you are immersed in a professional service. The interior is pleasant, one where White and brown colours dominate the stylish interior and leather seats and benches provide a comfortable seating arrangement. While seated, you can admire the chefs being busy in the open kitchen BBQing above the open flames. A sign above the kitchen displays the different sizes and types of beef available, and we can't but admire the chart with the different steaks available, some ranging up to 31oz if you are feeling hungry enough to finish one of these monsters. The weekend lunch menu which is available from 12pm to 3pm, is a 2 course menu at a cost of €22.95. As I starter, i selected the beetroot and tart tatin, bluebell falls goat cheese with walnuts and aged balsamic where my dad selected the halibut ceviche with avocado mousse and ginger bread toast. While we were waiting for our starters to arrive, we got a plate with different types of bread accompanied by a dip. When both starters came out from the kitchen, we were happy to find 2 colourful plates with fabulous tasting food. For the main course, I decided to go for the baby back ribs with Jack Daniel's sticky sauce, chargrilled corn on the cob and chips where my dad selected the 8 Oz dry aged Picanha seved with onion in the peel and chips. Both were fabulous, I especially loved the ribs which turned out to be a very generous portion with extra sauce if needed. The fabulous food with the professional service makes Asador the perfect location to eat beautiful BBQ'd meat (or fish if you prefer).
The weekend menu at €22.95 is great value for the quality of the food served. Highly recommended. Old Head is located close to the town of Louisburgh in Co.Mayo. Old Head Beach is fabulous during any season. The beach has views towards Croagh Patrick and is sheltered by cliffs and native woodland. Here you find one of Ireland's few coastal Atlantic Oak woods which runs as far as the beach where it provides a dramatic backdrop for this co. Mayo beach. But Old Head is more than just a beach, it is also home to the Old Head Blueway, an area suitable for a range of watersports. The pristine Atlantic Waters are the perfect location for snorkeling allowing you to admire the underwater world of the Atlantic - discovering different types of seaweed, fish, crabs and sea urchins ,... As part of the Blueway, you have Kayak and snorkel trails. As part of the kayak trail, you have 3 options:
a) a 5.5km trail which runs from Old Head and Lecanvy pier which passes a few beaches and rocky outcrops. This trail is great for beginners. b) A more exposed trail runs from Old Head to the beach at Calla, along the 5km route you will pass fabulous caves. This trail is for the more experienced kayaker. c) A 3km western trail extends beyond the headland, so still some experience will be required. The snorkel trail runs along the beach and traverses North from the pier towards the western headland. From here, you can decide to walk back along the beach or snorkel back. Under the watchful eye of Queen Maeve's grave on top of Knocknarea, we arrived at Carrowmore Megalithic Tombs in Co.Sligo. What is special about Carrowmore is that it is the largest cemetery of megalithic tombs in Ireland. The site is managed by the Office of public works, and a small visitor center is located at the site. Nowadays, approx. 30 monuments survive although it is thought that approx. 60 existed, but some got lost during the 18th & 19th century due to quarrying and field clearing. The visitor center opens it's doors from March to October and provides guided tours and self guided mult- lingual tours. Most of the tombs are satellite tombs which circle the main cairn called Listoghil (cairn 51). The small satellite tombs existed out of a central megalith burial chamber which is surrounded by a stone circle. Cairn 51 or Listoghil has been restored and is an impressive sight with Benbulben in the background. It was erected around 3500BC and is 34 meters in diameter. It has a box shaped chamber with the only megalithic art found at Carrowmore. We met the lovely Marian, Ellen and Joanna who were visiting the tombs as well. Marian used to run the Red Cottage B&B in Sligo town where now it is her daughter Karen who runs this busy B&B (https://www.redcottagesligo.com/). Her friend Ellen was over for a visit from Tipperary where Joanna was over from Poland to visit some friends.
Sligo is worth a visit, and if you are interested in megalithic history, you won't be disappointed with all the avaliable tourist attractions... ( www.choosesligo.com) |
