Fisherstreet, Doolin

Doolin
(Dubh Linn - dark pool)

Doolin is located north of the Cliffs of Moher, bordering the spa town of Lisdoonvarna and the southern end of the Burren.

The Aille River runs from the hills of the Burren down past Doolin to meet the sea. There are numerous nearby archaeological sites, many dating to the Iron Age and earlier. Doonagore Castle and Ballinalacken Castle are also in the area. Traditional Irish music is played nightly in each of Doolin's four pubs - O'Connors, McGanns, McDermotts and Fitz.
