“Loop Head is still a bit of a secret. Its people are committed to a sustainable, quality form of tourism, and you feel that. Carrigaholt is the perfect hub, and all in all there is a fine mix at Loop Head. Old-fashioned bucket-and-spade fun at Kilkee, cliff walks, dolphin watching, coastal cycling, cultural heritage at the lighthouse, a genuine welcome from a tightly knit community, watersports for all, and an area which avoided the traps of the Celtic Tiger and stayed true to itself.”
