Sligo Kayak Tours
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Amazing experience!! First time kayaking for myself and my children, aged 14,12 and 9 years. Beautiful setting and scenery. Guides Barry and Reuben were so informative, helpful and supportive to us all, but especially to my son (9). They were so friendly and welcoming. We all came back buzzing and n...

Knocknarea
Hiking area
👍👍 Extremely beautiful place, gorgeous view's from every angle. Easy enough climb even for someone who isn't fit. There are plenty of trails and walks all around the whole surrounding area. Beautiful all around the Knocknarea area and a busy little town in very near by Strandhill.

Dooney Rock Forest
Park
👍👍 We really enjoy to walking this area when we went to visit the area during the weekend. The path is very well indicated by different signs and it is easy to walk.
The views from here are great and in a sunny clear day, you are able to see the river.

Slishwood Forest
Country park
👍👍 Absolutely love Slishwood. You arrive to a big carpark. As you drive in there is a walk to the right, this one is short and abruptly ends so not my favourite. To the left you have the choice of 2 walks. A forest loop walk and an amazing board walk overlooking Lough Gill and leads on to the Lake...

Knocknarea
Hiking area
👍👍 Very pictures, a calm and relaxing trail to hike,
Don’t underestimate it, too many steps abd steep trail, bring some water or maybe a chocolate.
But it worth it.

Cullenamore Beach
Beach
👍👍 Lovely tidal beach, great for a long walk, especially when tide is out. It's quiet and partially surrounded by golf course. There's a small car park for approx 10 cars. You can take a longer walk through the dunes to the ocean.

Rosses Point Beach
Public beach
👍👍 Beautiful beach with stunning views of the Atlantic and Benbulben. Water stays shallow for quite far out so safe swimming is guaranteed if you follow the tide guide posted at the end of the steps down to the beach. Would benefit from having a changing facility for folks who value privacy, but otherw...

The County Sligo Golf Club
Golf club
👍👍 The Championship course at CSGC is a spectacular, challenging layout that is beautifully maintained and a true pleasure to play. Our forecaddy Danny was a young gentlemen and helped our foursome’s enjoyment of the course immensely, helping to lower our scores and find our errant shots (of which ther...

Killaspugbrone
Historical landmark
👍👍 You have to walk there. It takes some time. Take that time. It is worth it. Not because of the church ruin, but because of the serenity of this place. Which is only disturbed from time to time by an airplane that starts or lands at the very nearby Sligo Airport. Take the walk at sundown, and you get...
