places to slow down in Ireland
Oysters and seaweed
Arun Islands, Co Galway
Wild Atlantic Way
Stretching along the rugged western edge of Ireland between County Donegal and County Cork, the Wild Atlantic Way is perfect for slow exploration. Encourage clients to stop for drinks or live music at a pub such as the famous Matt Molloy’s, where they can also enjoy local storytelling and hearty cuisine. Irish ingredients are as fresh as they come – clients can even try their hand at seaweed foraging along Kerry’s coastline. And in the city of Galway, it’s not all buzz – clients can take a boat trip on Galway Bay or spend a day on the Aran Islands of Inis Mór, Inis Meáin and Inis Oírr, where perfectly preserved historic forts and remote beaches are waiting to be discovered.
