festivals<\/a> during this time of year as there is in the summer but there is still a good amount to pick from. From September to late October, there are several popular festivals such as the Galway International Oyster Festival, the Wexford Opera Festival, and the Cork Jazz Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAutumn is also a great time to enjoy one of the many boat tours available from tours of Galway Bay to Whale Watching or island tours around the Dingle Peninsula. It\u2019s also a beautiful time to visit one of the many beautiful lakes or Loughs with the autumn colors and changing leaves making for some stunning photo opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is also a good number of food festivals and wild fruit picking events around this time and when the end of October rolls around you will not have to look far to enjoy a Halloween Festival with people dressing up as ghouls, ghosts and zombies in keeping with the annual celebration, and this is a nice time of the year to enjoy horse \u00a0racing at the local track or wine tasting in one of Ireland\u2019s vineyards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But don’t let the thought of a bit of inclement weather put you off. While Ireland is known for its stunning natural beauty there is also a wealth of options for indoor entertainment during the colder season. Don\u2019t miss Dublin’s pubs, city museums, and winter and fall festivals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brewery tours and other tours abound and if you don\u2019t mind getting wrapped up in your winter woollies then some of the iconic visitor’s sites can offer stunning views and a different landscape than normally seem during the warmer summer months. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
