A wonderful, free museum. The view from the tower is nice and the man who was there was very knowledgeable and had tons of stories about himself and Ireland! Can be in and out in 15 minutes, or you could stay for hours to read all the signs and have a lovely chat with the staff. Highly recommend.

Originally built to monitor fishing, this Victorian tower has been restored and converted into a tiny, free museum to educate visitors about the local salmon industry through displays including photos, along with fantastic views over the waterways. As Galway is a small city eventually you’ll pass by this museum, however, in my opinion it’s not worth a visit.

Very interesting, small museum. Perfect for visiting something a bit different, and will only take an hour or less. Staff is very friendly!

Really cool place to see. I walked in while passing on the way to town, very interesting old photos and old fishing tackle. Great view once you get to the top of the watchtower. I'm not sure of the opening hours but whenever it is open its free admission

It's a fast exhibit but the people working there are super friendly and helpful. A nice but of history. In and out in about 10 - 15 minutes

Interesting building. For such a small building it has a lot of history. Well worth stopping by to pay a visit

It's a watchtower. Interesting history and a friendly (and knowledgeable) front desk host. Worth a visit if you need to kill some time.

There’s a note saying ‘back in 10’ when i was there and it obviously took more than 10...i couldnt get in. So i pictured in my head the view from there. Should be nice.

Not a huge museum, but offers a lot of information about the history of fishing in Galway and some local artifacts. Also great views of the area.

The fisheries museum was an unplanned stop but one of the best places we visited in Galway! Brendan the tour-guide gave a comprehensive and interesting history of the Corrib River and Galway City. He was incredibly knowledgeable and very friendly! The views of the river were beautiful from the top of the tower. Definitely worth it if you love Irish history, fishing, or both!

Local history and information on Salmon by the man at the door .. nice little place

Unique little tower abreast the fast flowing river Corrib. Well worth a visit for something different !!
