Climate Neutrality and Carbon Offsetting
Welcome to Ireland’s first climate neutral eco campsite. The carbon emission from our eco certified campsite is 100% neutralized on the global level. Customers arriving by foot or bike can now automatically avail of a ‘climate neutral eco holiday’ independently certified by South Pole Global & Sustainable Travel Ireland. Additionally visitors who use private or public transport can, as an option offset their carbon emission of their travel through myclimate. This is the first of its kind in Ireland where visitors can experience a ‘climate neutral eco holiday’.
To lower your carbon footprint on your travels it is always best to use public transport. To get here by bus or train please check out the following websites/timetables:

At our request, South Pole Global measured our yearly carbon emissions. We have bought the equivalent carbon quota to support the Kariba forest protection project in Zimbabwe. We also implement climate-neutral measures with Sustainable Travel Ireland through our eco-certified gold label.
Through this we have managed to reduce our climate footprint to zero on the global level. South Pole Global is one of the world’s leading providers of voluntary carbon offsetting measures whilst Sustainable Travel Ireland is one of the first eco-labels in Europe to be recognized by the Global SustainableTourism Council.
We are always monitoring our carbon footprint and are always looking for ways to reduce the greenhouse emission that our business produces. This means monitoring waste, electricity and water usage etc. You can check out our emission for the year 2019 on Clifden Eco Beach Camping Carbon Footprint for 2019.
We encourage all our visitors to offset their own carbon emissions. To do this this click on the following link to myclimate or just use the calculator below:
