Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

If youwant to try canoeing and surfing and bellyboarding as well as archery then there is a great activity centre in Bunacurry on the Island.
Drive around the Atlantic drive. There are hidden, wonderful places. For one of the most amazing and unknown views go up the bog road in Corraun or up Minnaun Heights – the highest sea cliffs in Europe. Best beaches are Keem and Keel. Keem bay is stunning and the drive there is memorable. Keel is the longest beech on the island. It has sandy beaches and has a picnic area. From hillwalking and outdoor activities to fishing and angling, from golf, painting or horseriding to surfing, windsurfing or scuba diving, your visit to Achill can be as active as you like. Or just relax with a coffee or a pint and a view of Achill's spectacular mountains, cliffs and five Blue Flag beaches. Lynnott's is the smallest pub in Ireland and serves a great Guinness! Scoil Acla takes place each summer and is a nationally renowned festival odf painting, music and fun.
