Ireland is a popular island destination in the North Atlantic in Europe. Three World Heritage Sites: the Brú na Bóinne, Giant’s Causeway, and the Skellig Michael are undoubtedly famous with tourists throughout the seasons. Dublin, which is home to the Guinness Storehouse and Book of Kells, also experiences heavy traffic of tourists all year round. Lahinch and Donegal Bay are world-known surfing beaches courtesy of south-west Atlantic winds. With several lakes, extensive coastline and miles of rivers full of fish, Ireland has become a famous angling destination in Europe. Many shipwrecks along the coastline of Ireland provide perfect wreck dives. If you are visiting Ireland, then a glamping vacation will just be fine for you.
