The only problem with organising weekend breaks in Galway is knowing how to make best use of your time. With that in mind, here are five activities and destinations in the region that can all be seen in a couple of days.
Taking a drive in Connemara is a must for all visitors. With its coastal landscapes, rocky peaks, and winding seaside roads, it's made for a quick road trip from Galway.
When you visit Connemara, make a pit stop at this rural estate, which offers 450 acres of ancient woodlands with clearly signposted footpaths, along with seasonal delicacies like duck and locally harvested mushrooms at the riverfront restaurants.
The Aran islands are just off Galway, and cruises can let you see them in a few hours. Don't miss the rusted hulk of the MV Plassey, the ruins of O'Brien's Castle, and Inishmore's spectacular blowholes, where seawater bursts through the island rocks.
Just north of Galway, Salthill is a place to stroll and relax. You can take great pics of Galway Bay, duck into welcoming pubs, grab an ice cream, and soak up the salty seaside air, before heading back to Galway in a few minutes.
Galway itself is a wonderful place to explore, from the bohemian art shops of Shop Street, to the seafront with the Fisheries Watchtower Museum. Round off a walking tour with a meal at one of two Michelin-starred eateries.
