Ireland's Atlantic Coast

Ireland's Atlantic coast is one of Europe's most dramatic shorelines — a 2,500 km edge of cliffs, sea stacks, sandy bays, and tidal inlets stretching from Donegal in the north to Cork in the south. This visualization maps landmarks, natural features, and points of interest along the western seaboard, letting you explore the geography at your own pace.

From the towering Cliffs of Moher in Clare to the island-scattered bays of Connemara and the rugged peninsulas of Kerry, the west coast has shaped Irish culture, language, and identity for millennia. Many of the mapped locations carry centuries of history alongside their natural beauty.
