Summer is often when we make huge plans for dream holidays, but before you jet off to far away exotic scenery, consider Ireland's very own majestic offerings right on your doorstep. 

I think it's fair to say that the majority of us haven't explored Ireland as much as we would like, so why not make this the year to tick off the top sights across the country?

With 24 amazing locations that we think every Irish person should visit on the list, you could easily squeeze in a few of these adventures over the next few months.

Grab your rain gear (it's still Ireland, after all) and enjoy Ireland in all its glory.
