  • The Wild Atlantic Way, on the west coast of the Republic of Ireland, is like stepping into another world. Both rugged and bucolic, the Wild Atlantic Way boasts rocky coastlines, green hillsides, land and sea adventures, and enough local characters to make you want to return again and again.

    Speaking as an Irish person ,For anyone that will be visiting Ireland in the nearby future, i highly recommend you to do the tour of the Wild Atlantic Way. If you really want to see Ireland and its breath taking beauty , the west coast is definitely where it all takes place. Dublin is nice but like any country really there is so much more to Ireland than the capital . Cork and Galway are smaller cities but have just as much (or in my opinion ,even more!) charm and hospitality. Hope this helps :)

    We forget how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful. We all want to go and see the world and seem to forget that we're 'escaping' from one of the most overwhelming gorgeous places, untouched by pollution, war and people. I am so lucky to be growing up in Ireland. I'm only 16, but I love it here, Leitrim may not be the most beautiful place in Ireland, but it's home.

    Even though Ireland is only 17 degrees south of the Arctic Circle the warm Atlantic winds keep it a bit warmer than the latitude would suggest.Every hurricane which hits Florida will,exhausted, spin across the Atlantic to hit Ireland.Ireland is still cold though....the beaches are freezing.
