The Cliffs are 214m high at the highest point and range for 8 kilometers over the Atlantic Ocean on the western seaboard of County Clare.
Friday, Day 6
Cruise to Killaloe and visit to Foynes flying boat museum. Foynes Flying Boat Museum captures perfectly the romantic era of the first transatlantic passenger flights by flying boat. Pan-Am Airlines commissioned Charles Lindbergh who had made the first solo flight to Europe in 1927, hot on the heels of Alcock and Brown who had beaten him to it in 1919, to find a suitable base for their flying boat service from New York to Ireland. Foynes on the Shannon estuary was chosen as the nearest European landfall, which turned out to be of strategic importance as a back door into Europe during WW2. Another option is to visit Adare Manor to gain a real insight into the history and tradition of falconry, ‘getting up close and personal’ with birds of prey such as owls, falcons and eagles. Alternatively, a fishing Ghillie can be arranged for some lake or fly fishing. Captain’s Farewell Dinner onboard.
Saturday, Day 7
