Kinvara (Irish: Cinn Mhara, meaning "head of the sea") is a lovely town located about 30 minutes south of Galway. It is the entry point for those who want to discover the magic of Burren and the impressive Cliffs of Moher.

The Dunguaire Castle (Irish: Dún Guaire) on the border of the town appears often on books, films and brochures showing the beauty of Ireland, and it is worth it.
