It starts with a shadow play depicting the legend of the Salmon of Knowledge, shows authentic news reels in old TV sets, explains wild salmon fishing and modern aquaculture. You can solve jigsaw puzzles and quizzes. Very entertaining.

Lisdoonvarna used to be Ireland's premier spa town where the gentry would go to spend the summer months to "take the [sulphur] water" and check out the opposite sex. From this, the matchmaking festival came into existence.
The spa wells are a bit hidden, a beautiful spot at the southern end of Main Street. With its well maintained park and the historical building, it is a little gem.
