Ireland and its beautiful vistas make for a fantastic backdrop for famous movies. And on this trip to Ireland we visit some of our favorite movies and their extraordinary filming locations. We start off our filming location hunt at one of Irelands #1 tourist attractions, The Cliffs of Moher are stunning and can be seen in the movie Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, but my family is most familiar with them as The Cliffs of Insanity in one of our favorite films, The Princess Bride.
Next on our list we head East to a different shoreline. We go to
Ballinesker Beach, Ballinruan, Curracloe, Co. Wexford, Ireland. Currocloe Beach also called Ballinesker Beach was were Steven Spielberg shot Saving Private Ryan. Curracloe Beach stood in as Omaha Beach from the Invasion of Normandy. In fact a nearby restaurant named itself Omaha Beach Restaurant as a nod to the making of the movie. Steven Spielberg chose not to shoot in Normandy for moral issues. Curracloe Beach is a beautiful stretch of soft sand with huge grassy sand dunes.
We then head to Dublin, Ireland to Grafton Street. Grafton St is one of Europe's best shopping streets. This pedestrian only street is full of cafes, shops and musicians who serenade lucky passerbys. In the movie Once, a vacuum repair man moonlights as a musician on Grafton Street.
P.S. I Love You, Gerry and Holly meet along the Sally Gap.
In Ron Howards, Far and Away. Event the American filming locations are in Ireland. The scenes that are Boston are really the alley way behind the Guinness Factory.
The most sought after filming location in Ireland is also the hardest one to get to...Skellig Island. Skellig Island is only allowed 180 visitors a day, you must book your ferry ticket far in advance, tours are often canceled due to poor boating conditions and the reason we did not go, they don't take kids under 12 because of the many steps and rough waters. Skellig Island is in Star Wars The Force Awakens.
We do drive the Ring of Kerry to see Skellig from land from the Cliffs of Kerry. While we are there, we can also see Lemon Rock that also appears in Harry Potter and the Half Blood-Prince.
Great video, but its skellig, not skelling.👍
Oops! 😬. Thanks for the kindness❤️❤️❤️

Am I the only one who was waiting for a Leap Year location? lol
