Wild Atlantic Way

The Wild Atlantic Way (Irish: Slí an Atlantaigh Fhiáin) is a tourism trail on the west coast, and on parts of the north and south coasts, of Ireland.

The route was officially launched in 2014 by the Minister of State for Tourism and Sport, Michael Ring, T.D.

[4] The Wild Atlantic Way has had a significant impact on tourism in Ireland, attracting millions of visitors from around the world.

It has also provided a boost to local economies, particularly in rural areas where tourism is a key industry.

The route has been widely recognized for its role in promoting sustainable tourism and preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the west coast of Ireland.
