Fanore

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fanore is a small village in Co. Clare, on the west coast of Ireland. It is renowned for its extensive sandy beach. Fanore is very popular with walkers, surfers, tourists and is particularly interesting to botanists due to its location on the edge of the Burren which is renowned for its unique flora and fauna. The village is quite small and consists of a pub, and a post office/shop & restaurant. It has a surfing school in close proximity to the beach.

Fanore has been featured many times on Irish television due to some of its inhabitants[citation needed]. The Father Ted series often featured scenes from Fanore and the surrounding villages.
