The Wild Atlantic Way is the best way to discover Ireland’s natural beauty! From gorgeous beaches to unique landscapes like the Burren, it’s the best route to discover Ireland’s most beautiful natural attractions. If you are looking for where to get the best photos, this route is for you. Your Instagram account will thank you!

The Cliffs of Moher are arguably one of Ireland’s most jaw dropping attractions. Rising over 700 feet (214m) out of the Atlantic Ocean at their highest point, these cliffs run for 14 kilometres. Photographers love to capture the cliffs especially when the weather is in their favour, using it to their advantage to take stunning sunrise shots or beautiful evening pictures.

Cork’s own Garnish Island is also a favourite among photo lovers. The 37 acre island is located in the small harbour of Glengarriff and features stunningly beautiful gardens.

The gardens have a variety of plant types and colours, making it a no brainer as to why the area is so popular for those looking to take in Ireland’s natural beauty.

Skellig Michael is also a favourite, especially among Star Wars fans since some of the movies were filmed there. Located in county Kerry, this island is known for its stunning height and natural wildlife like the iconic puffins.

Its steep landscape also has ancient monastic architecture like the huts which still to this day is in good condition. For those fond of capturing Ireland’s architectural history and natural wildlife, the island is a must see.

Along the coast of Connemara you can find Aillebrack Beach which instantly captivates. One of the many gorgeous beaches you can find on the Wild Atlantic Way, this beach is perfect for those trying to capture the perfect blend between sea and land.
