Oysters at New Quay


New Quay, County Clare, Ireland

Clarinbridge Oyster Festival is the place to be this weekend. I drove through yesterday afternoon and it looked to be gearing up for a fine evening. However, being a little crowd-shy by nature I moseyed on and took a turn west towards Kinvara. Stopped at Linnane’s in New Quay and enjoyed the oysters in a tranquil, laid-back atmosphere. John’s been there before. As he notes, the fast movement of the tides is particularly interesting.
