Galway has a vast number of shops and chain stores to cater for every need. From high street labels and brand names to simple souvenirs, Galway has it all.. Galway is known as the City of the Tribes. It had strong fighting and warrior ties in medieval times. This is still evident with historical ruins of castles and the structure of the street system within the city. Ballyvaughan is a prosperous fishing and tourist village just past Black Head in north Clare. In recent year, Ballyvaughan has grown to cater for the thousands of visitors that pass through it each year. It is a working, fishing port in the summer and offers much needed shelter from the raging Atlantic in the winter. In the summer, its small pier becomes the centre of attention with fishing and pleasure boats alike.
