Doolin, Ireland Travel Tips?

Hi quick question for anyone that's travel savvy when it comes to Ireland. I'm planning to go to Doolin, Ireland this summer and originally I planned to fly in and out of Galway and then bus to Doolin. I found the bus schedule, but I was wondering if anyone knows the area well and knows any helpful info about the transit system. The next stop I'll be making in in Dublin, and again, does anyone know if there is a faster way to get there from Doolin (direct bus line, another airport other than Galway) Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

1. Bus Eireann shuttle in and out of Doolin from http://www.irishtourist.com/clare/maps/cities_and_towns/ Lisdoonvarna and Lahinch. Dont know timetable, sure its online. As to flying to Dublin, Shannon is next nearest if Galways out but you would probably be in Dublin city centre on a bus just as quick. But if flying is your thing... You will love Doolin. I've had lots of great weekends there
2. Doolin is a tiny little village on the west coast of Clare, and bus connections between it and Dublin are not the best. I would e-mail a contact address at www.buseireann.ie and ask about the summer schedule, it might be different to what's on the website at the moment. There are also private bus companies that operate in Ireland, and it might be an idea to check those out. One of them is Kavanagh's of Urlingford, County Kilkenny, google them.
