Shannon Region

Killaloe, Co. Clare

For visitors who step off a plane at Shannon International Airport, the Shannon Region is their first taste of Ireland — and what a delicious taste it is!

With the Shannon River meandering through the cities, towns, and countryside, the Shannon Region comprises Counties Limerick and Clare and parts of Tipperary, Galway, Offaly, and north Kerry.

Some of Ireland's grandest scenery and experiences are here — from Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, Ireland's most popular attraction outside of Dublin, to the historic city of Limerick; Adare, known as "the prettiest village in Ireland"; the legendary Rock of Cashel; the majestic Cliffs of Moher; the unique rock-strewn landscape of The Burren; Yeats' literary tower at Thoor Ballylee; and the Lough Derg Drive, Ireland's best-kept scenic secret.

All this, plus the ease and advantages of flying into and out of Shannon Airport, the world's first duty-free airport.
