Destination Spotlight
On a journey from Donegal to Cork, hugging the curves of Ireland’s West Coast, the Wild Atlantic Way weaves its way through nine counties and three of the four Irish provinces. Over the course of some 2,500 km, snaking around bays and over hills, past mountains and overlooking headlands, through pretty villages and towns, you’re never far from two constants, staggering scenery and incredible seafood. Plucked from the roaring waters and powerful waves, fishermen toil and travail to harvest the ocean riches on our shores. From fishing harbours to fishmongers, markets to smokehouses, chefs and producers serve up the West coast’s marine bounty that is celebrated the world over. Whether you plan to picnic on crab salad, tuck into fish and chips by the ocean, cook up a dish of mussels or scallops at home or learn about the intricacies of oyster farming or salmon smoking, there’s no finer place to discover the joys of Irish seafood. From tide to table, here’s a selection of what’s on offer on the wondrous Wild Atlantic Way.
