Experience The Wild Atlantic Way
The Wild Atlantic Way (WAW) traces Ireland’s western edge, revealing a coastline shaped by the full force of the Atlantic Ocean. Stretching through Donegal, Leitrim, Sligo, Mayo, Galway, Clare, Limerick, Kerry, and Cork, this legendary route captures a landscape of cliffs, headlands, islands, beaches, and open ocean that feels both ancient and alive. The WAW promises adventure without isolation.
Along the way, dramatic natural landmarks sit beside Gaelic-speaking communities, fishing villages, monastic ruins, and historic towns shaped by centuries of seafaring, storytelling, and survival on the Atlantic frontier. This ‘wilder’ life is complemented by vibrant towns and cities such as Galway, Westport, Killarney, Dingle, Donegal Town, and Cork. These hubs offer excellent dining, shopping, music, accommodation, and transport links, ensuring travellers enjoy both the freedom of the open coast and the comfort of well-connected communities.
Along the Irish west coast, the Atlantic defines the journey.
