I’d recommend this guide for people planning on travelling all or part of the Wild Atlantic Way, those who want to explore their own county, or anyone who needs reminding just how beautiful our coastline is and how much there is to do here.
"This book is the rare guide book. It is informative and helpful, but it is also very beautiful. It is a must if you intend to explore the West Coast of Ireland."

"The minute I saw this book I purchased it. Makes you want to get up from your desk and head West. Super photos, loads of detail."
"Received my copy of Exploring Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way & I haven't put it down since it arrived."
"This is a book for those who want to properly immerse themselves in the stunning outdoors of the west coast, those who want to end up windswept and salty, saddle-sore and blistered."
"This is by far the best guide I have come across for the WAW. The tips and suggestions in it are so spot-on, it’s like meeting a helpful local who points you in the right direction."
"The detailed practical information is what sets this book apart, as well as it's evocative imagery. The format is user friendly - whether in a car, or cycling or walking. "
