visitor centre is open all year round.
Four miles east of Doolin is Lisdoonvarna,
Ireland's only Spa town.
Doolin is on the fringe of the world famous Burren, a
remarkable limestone area which has a combination of
many visual features that make it unique in Europe. Its
geology, flora, caves, archaeology and history set it
