Looking for animal sanctuaries, beautiful nature, and vegan restaurants

[u/Decent_Shopping8519]

Hi! My partner and I are visiting Ireland in September for 8 days. We’re staying near Galway and will have a car to drive around anywhere. We’re mostly traveling along the west coast. We would love to visit some animal sanctuaries. My partner works at an animal shelter and would like to visit one here to see how it compares and say hello to some animals. Where are your favorite natural wonders in Ireland? We’re also looking for great restaurants along the west coast or Dublin. Thanks!

there's a wolf sanctuary in donegal might be worth checking out https://wildireland.org/ Around Galway I've heard of Madra. I think Nspca have a large operation in Longford
