  • Blue Flags for Lough Derg and Burren Passport
    Blue Flags for Lough Derg and Burren Passport Monday, 9 June 08 An Taisce has awarded the prestigious International Blue Flag to eight of County Clare’s beaches. Mountshannon and Ballycuggeran on Lough Derg retained the Blue Flag status they lost in 2006 due to the presence of algal bloom in the lake while Cappa, Kilkee, White Strand (Miltown Malbay), Lahinch and Fanore have also held on to their Blue Flags. Meanwhile, Clare County Council has expressed its delight that White Strand (Doonbeg) regained its Blue Flag for 2008. Deputy Mayor of Clare, Councillor Brian Meaney, today collected all eight flags at a ceremony in County Louth. Speaking following today's awards ceremony, Cllr Tommy Brennan,Chairof Clare County Council's Environment, Emergency Services and Consumer Protection Strategic Policy Committee said, 'I am delighted that Clare has secured eight Blue Flags this year. I especially welcome the fact that White Strand, Doonbeg regained its Blue Flag Status. This loss in 2007 was not because of inadequate bathing water quality but due to necessary access works at the beach, which Clare County Council has since successfully completed.' Cllr. Brennan indicated that the awarding of Blue Flags to eight Clare beaches was achieved through the hard work of local communities and Local Authority staff. 'Again, it is further proof of what the county can achieve when Clare Local Authorities and members of the public work together', he added. According to Sean Ward, Senior Engineer, Environment & Emergency Services Directorate, "Clare County Council is extremely happy with the eight blue flags achieved, especially the re-awarding of White Strand, Doonbeg, which is a reflection of the positive actions taken by Clare County Council at this beach to improve access." The Blue Flag award is an exclusive eco-label awarded to more than 3,000 beaches and marinas in 28 countries in the Northern Hemisphere each year.

  • Buses in the Burren 2014 a Study of the Impacts and Issues
    Buses in the Burren 2014 A Study of the Impacts and Issues January 2015 Funded by 1 Introduction This study on bus and coach tourism has been commissioned by the Burren & Cliffs of Moher Geopark and has been funded jointly under TransTourism, the Northern Periphery Interreg IVB Programme and the EU LIFE + GeoparkLIFE Programme. The Burren is one of Europe’s most unique landscapes whose landscape and culture attracts increasing visitor numbers each year. The astonishing character of this karst region has evolved through a powerful combination of geology, ecology, archaeology, agriculture, history, heritage, commerce, creativity and community. These rich and diverse influences infuse the area with a haunting, spectacular and world-unique beauty. Tourism is a valuable source of income for many businesses and families in the region. The quality of the tourism product and the care with which it is offered are crucial attractions for visitors. It’s clear to all that tourism brings challenges as well as opportunities and that the unique natural assets of the region need to be protected and cared for. To ensure the protection and sustainable use of this natural resource, a co-ordinated approach to visitor management and environmental protection has been underway for over a decade implementing the principle of ecotourism in the area and linking environmental, community and tourism interests with statutory agencies and business operators. These efforts have been accelerate since the award of UNESCO recognised Global Geopark status in 2011. In order to plan more effectively for sustainable tourism practices in the area, the Burren & Cliffs of Moher Geopark have commissioned this study to establish baseline information on the extent and impacts of coach tourism in the area.
