Visit Fanore Beach

A beach of sand and pebbles!

Fanore Beach is a superb Irish beach in the heart of the Burren. The place is wild, and has the advantage of being relatively uncrowded. So don’t hesitate to drop in for a picnic, a kite-fly or a stroll along the waves.

The water is rather cold, but acceptable during the summer months, so a little dip in the lake is definitely worth considering!

A pretty beach, where you can enjoy a peaceful change of scenery!
