One of the best walks along the wild Atlantic way. It has a path that follows the cliffs and a lovely restaurant at the start/end called the Diamond rocks. Located in the next town of Kilkee, less than 15 minute drive.

Spanish point is a great beach to visit anytime for swimming or surfing. I would however, totally recommend joining the tribe of sea swimmers that venture out as part of Snámhaí Sásta every morning at 9am. It’s about 20-25 drive away.
