Description
Stretching from Lough Corrib in the south to Killala Bay in the north, Mayo boasts many attractions including stunning mounting scenery, megalithic tombs, excellent fishing waters, hill walking and great golf courses - including the championship course at Westport in west Mayo.
Mayo has a wonderfully varied landscape. A long coastline features superb safe beaches and all the drama of the highest sea cliffs in Europe. Romantic islands include Clare Island, long the home of Grace O'Malley, the pirate queen, Inishturk and Achill, Ireland's largest island, joined to the mainland by a bridge.
Inland a more serene beauty reigns with lakeland scenery and rolling mountains. Mayo has hundreds of beautiful lakes ranging from the world famous Great Western Lakes of Conn, Cullen and Corrib right down to tiny local lakes. Parts of the county also feature the endangered bog land habitat, a mecca for wildlife enthusiasts.
