Discovering the Magic of Western Ireland
Curated by
Terri O'Connell
My grandfather was born in County Mayo, so whenever I go to Ireland I enjoy visiting this mystical part of the country. Exploring Western Ireland is a wonderful travel adventure that offers a mix of stunning landscapes, rich history and vibrant culture. Western Ireland is known for its dramatic coastline, charming villages, lush green hills and welcoming people. Here's a suggested itinerary to help you make the most of your trip:
Tralee Golf Course - 18 Holes of Ocean Views

Tralee Golf Club is often overshadowed by its illustrious neighbors, but don't let that put you off. Just outside the town of Tralee and about two hours from Shannon Airport, this track is as good as links golf gets. With the Atlantic Ocean visible from all 18 holes and a course best described by it's designer Arnold Palmer “I’ll create the front nine because god created the back nine”. It's a pity those two didn't work together more often.
