Sightseeing

Beautiful place to dip into the water. Visit the iconic black rock diving tower. Walk along the promenade and into Salthill village where there are many places to eat and drink. If you follow the prom all the way, you reach the claddagh. A quaint quarter with small fishing boats, swans, the river corrib.

Bunratty castle and folk park is located about a 1 hour drive from Galway. It’s really worth a visit. The folk park is an exact replica of an old Irish village, complete with an old school house, what a public house was like etc. It is made very well and I highly recommend it! You can visit the castle too.

Beautiful old castle. It’s now a hotel. But you can wander the beautiful castle grounds. The gardens, walk by the river and enjoy lunch in the castle restaurant. It’s stunning and worth a visit.
