Welcome to the Western Part of Lough Derg. I'm Dergie and i'm here to help you have a super holiday on Lough Derg, in Ireland's Shannon Region. In this section, I have listed visitor information for the Western Part of Lough Derg together with ideas, suggestions and recommendations. Keep an eye out for them.
Nestling between the imposing mountains of Slieve Aughty in Galway and Slieve Bernagh in Clare and the dramatic waterway of Lough Derg are a fascinating selection of towns, villages and harbours.
The various communities of Lough Derg West offer the visitor a wonderful opportunity to experience the area’s great scenic beauty, fine hospitality and engaging activity options, both on water and on land.
From Woodford in Galway right down along the lakeshore to Killaloe/Ballina on the lake’s southern tip, you will find absorbing centres, each with its own unique character.
Check out the individual links on the left to find out more about what each centre offers.
