The Garavogue River Starting on the magical shores of Lough Gill, the river winds its way through town, under bridges and past charming parks to the bay and estuary and finally the Atlantic. This proximity makes Sligo perhaps one of the best places to experience fresh, salt and brackish water within a small radius. Whether you opt for the challenging Ben Bulben hike, or you prefer a more gentle coastal ramble at Mullaghmore or perhaps forested walk in Union Wood, Sligo is a place to get outdoors.
Because of the way the coast is faced, the beaches of Strandhill, Streegah and Easkey get some of the best wind and therefore some of the best waves on the Wild Atlantic Way – and people come from all over Ireland and even Europe to get a taste of local surfing, nicknamed Ireland’s Surf Coast!
There have been people inhabiting the Coolera Peninsula and area around the Garavogue River since megalithic times, meaning more than five thousands years ago. Monuments such as the giant cairn atop Knocknarea Hill, the megolithic tombs at Carrowkeel and Carrowmore, as well as the other tombs dotting the landscape
The legendary burial site of Queen Maeve, a formidable warrior of the region Connaught, a nemesis of mythical giant Cuchalainn credited with shaping the Giant’s Causeway. A giant cairn on the top of Knocknarea hill, the cairn is actually a megalithic tomb re-associated with Queen Maeve. To follow the legend, you’ll have to bring up a stone from the bottom of the hill to add to the massive cairn.
Fabulous Food too, Shell’s Cafe in Strandhill (yummy all the time but a standout brunch spot), Eithna’s by the Sea in Mullaghmore (a menu of just-caught seafood), Sweetbeat Cafe (innovative vegan cuisine), gastro pubs like Hargadon’s or Coach Lane/Donaghy’s in Sligo town. Great for shopping too!
William Butler Yeats and his brother Jack both spent many happy childhood years in Sligo and has been immortalised by the famous WB Yeats – such as the well-known “Lake Isle of Inishfree”.
Parking is on street and everything you need is on your doorstep. A short stroll into the city center and enjoy the wonderful food and shopping that Sligo has to offer. Just park up and switch off!! Enjoy :-)
