"Fanore Beach - County Clare" - oil paintingby Avril Brand
Oils on canvas 50×70cm. (Original sold)
A beautiful beach and a beautiful day in Ireland! During the summer time, the beach is very popular.
Fanore (Fán Óir, “the golden slope”, in Irish) is a small village in County Clare on the west coast of Ireland.
Lying on the road between Ballyvaughan and Doolin, Fanore is renowned for its extensive sandy beach.
The village is very popular with walkers, surfers, tourists and is particularly interesting to botanists, owing to its location on the edge of the Burren – renowned for its unique flora and fauna. It has a pub, a post office/shop, and a restaurant, as well as a surfing school near the beach.
Fanore has appeared many times on Irish television: in particular, the Father Ted series often featured scenes filmed in Fanore and its surrounding villages. (wiki)
