Food Scene

Good for coffee and meeting locals
A unique cafe where everyone there often ends up in the one conversation! A small family run cafe. I always leave smiling after having shared a few giggles with total strangers :) The carrot cake is a must!!!

A castle by the water with stunning gardens, what's not to like! This castle had 300,000 visitors last year. The cafe is nice too. I recommend buy some of their homemade jams from their shop.

This bay was once home to the legendary Pirate Queen Granuaile (Grace O'Malley). According to legend, there are 365 islands in Clew bay, one for each day of the year. Croagh Patrick towers over the bay. The best way to see the bay is on a boat!

My favorite thing to do. First you need to do a lesson then you can take them out on your own. They also offer sunset cruises, weather dependent. Follow on Instagram for updates

This cute beach town is the perfect summer destination. The only stress you will have is which of beach to hit, what flavour ice cream and which Irish musicians you want to catch! The Winter is quite and peaceful. It's time to enjoy having the beach to yourself, listen to the waves crash & have a hot chocolate in Tia Cafe
