Planning for visit to Ireland this May

Planning my route for this holiday and am thinking about which towns to stay as bases to explore the nature attractions of ireland.

The attractions i plan to visit:

1. Giant's Causeway

2. Carrick-a-Rede & Dark Hedges

3. Mount Errigal & Eagle's Rock

4. Slieve League Cliffs

5. Malin Beg & Silver Strand Beach

6. Downpatricks head

7. Cliffs of Moher

8. Derryclare lough

Id also like to visit Galway and Dublin (is dublin worth visiting?)

Looking for advice on which towns to use as bases and whether there are any pretty spots that i have missed on the top half. Thank you in advance for your replies!
