Questions answered

About eco hotels in Mayo

How do I get to Achill Island?

By road — Achill is connected to the mainland by a bridge, not a ferry. The R319 from Westport to Achill Sound is approximately 50km (50 min). No regular ferry services operate.

What is special about Westport?

A Georgian planned town on Clew Bay, designed by James Wyatt in the 1780s. The octagonal town centre, Westport House demesne, Saturday market, and a concentration of excellent restaurants make it consistently Ireland's most liveable town.

When is Reek Sunday?

The last Sunday in July — approximately 30,000 pilgrims climb Croagh Patrick, many barefoot. The mountain is extremely crowded. Avoid this date if you prefer quiet walking.

What are the Céide Fields?

The world's oldest known enclosed landscape — Stone Age field boundaries, houses and megalithic tombs preserved under Mayo's blanket bog for 5,800 years. An award-winning visitor centre at Ballycastle interprets the site.

Is there good surfing in Mayo?

Yes — the Atlantic coast from Killala Bay to Achill has excellent surf. Achill Island, Belmullet, and Inishturk all have reliable breaks for intermediate and advanced surfers.
