Local Information
Hungry? Fine dining at Ard Bia, Cava, Gourmet Offensive (take away only), Hooked (fish n chips), il Vicolo, Kai, Loam, Martine’s, Black Cat (Salthill) and O’Grady’s on the Pier (Barna).
Time for a stroll? Walk from Galway to Blackrock along the Salthill promenade. Six clicks there and back. Glorious in the sunshine, invigorating in the wind and rain. Give it a go! Stop by the Circle of Life commemorative garden.
Time to venture further afield? Check out Leenane, Letterfrack, Clifden, Spiddal, the Aran islands or down south to Clare and the Burren, cliffs of Moher…
