Loop Head Lighthouse and Visitor Centre

Loop Head Lighthouse is situated on the scenic Loop Head peninsula in County Clare.

It is the major landmark on the northern shore of the Shannon River , with 90 metre high views of the sea down to Kerry Head and Dingle across the Shannon and up the Clare coast, and to the Cliffs of Moher.

Loop Head Lighthouse is one of the most important lights on the Irish Coast, guarding the entrance to the busiest river in Ireland, the River Shannon, since 1670.

We offer guided tours, exhibition rooms and a coffee to go dock and self catering accommodation.
