Located between Ballyvaughan and Doolin in County Clare, the popular village of Fanore is a great place for walkers and surfers, due to its sandy beach. Its location on the edge of the Burren - renowned for its unique flora, fauna and rugged landscape – also make this a site of interest to nature lovers and bird watchers. Also close by, and providing sharp contrast, is the town of Lisdoonvarna - home to the only active spa centre in Ireland, boasting a Victorian pump house, sauna, massage room and mineral baths situated in woodland surroundings. The town is also home to the annual Matchmaking Festival, a 150-year old tradition that takes place during September and October. Lisdoonvarna also boasts eight pubs - some of which offer traditional Irish music - and numerous good shops and restaurants.
