Wild Atlantic Way ( What Is It Like ? )

Did it partially in 2013. Was really nice, but can't be compared to Scotland NC.

 

I have ridden it 3 times. It is superb. The views and roads are amazing, as are the people. It's a longer ride with much more to see, but in smaller bites. Take a look on Youtube, Roadtrooper has made some inspiring videos. NC500 is beautiful and more accessible to me, but WAW wins every time.

 

Its beautiful! I didn't stick to the tourist route religiously though. Beara peninsula and Connamara are probably my favourite areas

 

I have done it too apart from Antrim. Its good, the people are friendly and the motorists are very tolerant of motorcycles.
Just one thing, if you think it rains a lot in Scotland.......

 

I've ridden in Ireland 3 times, a week each and once in Scotland for 10 days. We had more rain in Scotland..................

 

Mid summer in Ireland or Scotland I think your more likely to see the wet stuff. Best time I reckon is as early as April. Not too sure now but you might need a green card now as the republic of Ireland is still europe. I got sent automatically because I love in the north.

 

I've been to the South in June and September on my rides and totalled about 3 days rain.

 

Planned to go last year again in May, covid stopped play! Planning the same this year but its looking a bit touch and go at the minute

 

Same here Andy, I have 2 ferry crossings paid for, one from May and one from September. We ended up in Scotland in September, just before Sturgeon slammed the door!
