The Loop Head Peninsula

The beautiful peninsula of "Loop Head" is a magnificent headland http://www.loophead.ie/ which juts out into the Atlantic Ocean at the most Westerly end of County Clare. The "Loop Head" peninsula is situated in the South West corner of the beautiful County Clare and is steeped in history and folklore and is also where the famous Shannon River meets the wild Atlantic Ocean.” Once described as a “ Sleeping Giant on The Ocean “ Kilkee town and The Loop Head Peninsula offer some of the most beautiful scenic views, walks , untouched traditional Irish landscapes and the cleanest air that you are lightly to experience anywhere in Europe and I think that one day this beautiful area will be held in the same high esteem as “The Cliffs of Moher” Recently "Loop Head Tourism" won the coveted "Failte Ireland" award of "European Destination of Excellence" Aquatic for its endeavours to promote aquatic sustainable tourism in this area. Available here you will find breathtaking scenic cliff views , Dolphin Watching , boat and sea cliff fishing, fabulous walks , some of the most spectacular scuba diving sites in the world and lots lots more. The Peninsula is only 13 miles from the Kilimer Car Ferry which brings people from Co. Kerry and we are 45 miles from Shannon airport. I have travelled to a lot of places but Kilkee and "The Loop Head Peninsula" in County Clare Ireland is the best kept secret ever!!! and it wont be long before I go back.
