Galway bay is a lovely place to stay. The walk along the beach is very relaxing. I drive North toward the Connamara National park is amazing with views at every turn and some great places to see.

It would be unfair to comment as it was pretty much a pit stop between Killarney and Dublin for us.

A lively town where tourists hang out and a great starting point for the Connemara Coastal Drive & Kylemore Abbey which were stunning and worth the drive.
