The Lighthouse at Loop Head, Co Clare
Loop Head lighthouse is at the end of a long peninsula that forms the 'upper lip' of the Shannon Estuary. For long ignored, the local community has recently made huge progress in promoting the region for tourism. The result is an area oozing with character and a multitude of local crafts and coffee shops of very high quality. The area is extremely rich in wildlife, heath vegetation, cliffs and some rare breeding birds. You won't be disappointed here, despite the long trek needed to get here.
