170 years of Loop Head Lighthouse
LOOP HEAD Lighthouse is gearing up to mark 170 years.
A MARINE mammal observer (MMO) training programme has been announced for Kilrush.
*The matter was discussed at the March sitting of the West Clare Municipal District. FUNGIE’s role in attracting visitors to Dingle can be replicated in Kilrush and the Shannon Estuary, a local councillor has affirmed.
IT HAS been confirmed that a dolphin washed up on Doughmore Beach this week is not Dingle’s beloved friend.
One of the earliest research trips examining the activity of dolphins in the Shannon Estuary took place in 1993.
