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.

I'm Italian. I'm come in Ireland in 1999; and from that moment I feel in Love with this incredible, beautiful Island, culture and so on. Irish, are the BEST PEOPLE of the World. :-) God Bless Ireland, and the irish. Greetings, Love & Peace from Galway to EVERYONE: Renzo *

I tell people that as beautiful as Ireland is, one of the best reasons to go there is the people.

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.
