More than just a cave, this is an awe-inspiring journey into the heart of the earth. Visitors descend over 70 metres (200 feet) underground, following the footsteps of the early explorers who first discovered the cave in 1952. Along the way, you’ll learn how this surreal, fairy-tale world was carved entirely by water and time.
Nothing prepares you for the moment you enter the cave’s vast, cathedral-like chamber – and the Great Stalactite is revealed in a dramatic display of light and shadow. Suspended from the ceiling like nature’s chandelier, this extraordinary formation was created over thousands of years, drop by delicate drop.
Doolin Cave is a must-see on any Clare itinerary – whether you’re travelling solo, with family, or as part of a small group. Located just a short drive from the Cliffs of Moher and part of the Burren and Cliffs of Moher UNESCO Global Geopark, it’s one of Ireland’s most intriguing geological attractions.
- Wander the scenic eco nature trail around the cave’s farmland and original cave entrance.
- The on-site gift shop showcases work created using 12,000-year-old glacial clay discovered within the cave. This artisan range, crafted by Caireann Browne, tells a story of Ireland’s natural and cultural heritage – a perfect memento of your underground adventure.
- Relax at the on-site café, featuring local, home-made produce and welcoming hospitality, the café and gift shop provide a pleasant space to relax before or after the cave experience.
