The retreat will be held in Doolin, County Clare, Ireland. Doolin is an official ecotourism destination. This small town, whose tourism board is a cooperative among local business people, has won the Fáilte Ireland's Destination Award for Excellence in Customer Service. The community has worked hard to make their way of life enhanced by tourism, not destroyed by it. Visit their website to find out many things to do and see. Our field trips to Inis Mór, the Cliffs of Moher, and the Burren are on this map as well.
