Travel råd og advarsler Irland
| Climate |
The climate of Ireland can be summed up as being mild, moist and changeable with abundant rainfall and a lack of temperature extremes. It is defined as a temperate oceanic climate, or Cfb on the Köppen climate classification system, a classification it shares with most of northwest Europe. The country receives generally warm summers and mild winters, and is considerably warmer than other areas on its latitude. This is due to the fact it lies in the Atlantic Ocean, and as a result is warmed by the Gulf Stream all year. Met Éireann is the meteorological service of the Republic of Ireland, and the Met Office is that of Northern Ireland. |
| Food and drink |
When you think of Irish food, you may not get beyond the legendary potato famine before you start drifting into boredom. If other things come to mind, it will likely be fish and chips and the ever-present pint of Guinness. But even if you are not a serious foodie, you will be pleased to know that Irish food has come a long way since the days of the potato famine, and these days Irish cuisine does not have to be an oxymoron.
Food in Ireland comes in two general forms – traditional and modern. The traditional Irish food is what we most often think of, and it is the stuff you are likely to find on pub menus and simpler restaurants. Slightly dressed-up versions of simple dishes (with the accompanying higher prices) are also easily found in touristy |
| Shopping |
You can actually shop until you drop in Ireland - rural arts and crafts centers will entice you to spend some money, so will some of the largest and most modern malls in Europe! Find out where to shop, what to look out for and how to strike a bargain. Be it typical souvenirs or the latest European fashions. |
| Costs |
When it comes to the cost of living in the Republic of Ireland it’s very fair to say that there’s good news and there’s bad news – what’s more, the cost of living also depends on where you live with UBS recently ranking Dublin the 8th most expensive city in the world in which to live whilst lesser known villages on the coast can be among some of the cheapest places to live in Europe. |
