Tourist attractions key to Clare economic growth

County Clare’s lesser known tourist attractions will have a strong role to play in promoting the region in the coming months and year.

The pledge from Shannon Development comes as it assisted in securing 3.5 million euro in grant aid for tourim promotion here last year  and staged high profile marketing campaigns to bring the region to the world stage.

Landmarks such as the Cliffs of Moher, Bunratty Folk Park and the Burren were featured but Shannon Development say they’re pushing a balanced agenda.
