Ireland’s most ‘Instagrammable’ locations revealed

RESEARCH conducted by an Irish company has revealed the most beautiful spots across the country for taking Instagrams.

Ireland’s most Instagrammable locations have been revealed by InstaTours.

The most popular locations all had one thing in common – nature.

The locations selected are the following: Cliffs of Moher, Cork’s Blarney Castle, The Dark Hedges, Kylemore Abbey (Connemara), Dublin’s Temple Bar and the Dingle Peninsula.

The research was conducted by reviewing the volume of hashtags on Instagram for each location, checking the photo quality of each spot by professional photographers, and measuring the amount of travel blogs featuring each setting.

Stops along the Wild Atlantic Way proved to be the most Instagrammable.

InstaTours said the secret to a great Instagram photo were beautiful backgrounds, a sunrise/sunset and lack of other people around.

According to surveys online, people will take an average of 5 pictures at each location and it takes an average of 20 minutes to post their picture on social media afterwards, this is with an average of four posts per staycation.
