Ireland is known as the land that boasts 40 shades
of green, but of course not all attractions shimmer
a shade of emerald. The country also enjoys over 1,448km
of spectacular coastline, surrounded by the mighty
Atlantic on the west and the Irish Sea on the east.
As well as towering cliffs, clear fresh waters, numerous
sandy beaches, and an abundance of opportunities for
the water sports enthusiast, the coastline enjoys
lively fishing villages with some of the best seafood
in the world.
Inhabited for almost 7000 years, Ireland has experienced
a number of incursions and invasions, resulting in
a rich mixture of ancestry, culture and tradition.
It's known worldwide for fine linen, lace, china,
glassware, along with many ales and spirits. In this
land of green, all visitors are welcome.
Ireland is a land of contrasts and it invites you
to uncover its many different sides all with their
own magnetic appeal. From the urban buzz of Dublin,
Cork, Galway and Limerick, to the breathtaking countryside
in between, Ireland is full of surprises!
