Fanore - Fán Ór - The Golden Slope
The village of Fanore lies along the western edge of the Burren, affording spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and Aran Islands. The village is thought to be one of the longest in Ireland, though most of the daytime activity centers around its spectacular beach and sand dune system. At night, O'Donoghues pub and Holywell restauraunt provides sustenance to the weary traveller. The Caher River runs through Fanore, dividing the beach, and this is the only Burren river to run along the surface from its source to the sea.
