"And some time make time to drive out west....." (Seamus Heaney, Postscript)
The world’s longest coastal touring route, the Wild Atlantic Way stretches over 2,500 km (1,700 miles) along the western coast from Donegal to West Cork. The land and seascapes along the Wild Atlantic Way are without doubt, some of the most spectacular and unique. These routes take you on the road less travelled...it's about as close as you can get to the edge - the spray in your face, the sand on your feet, the mud on your tyres.
Along the Wild Atlantic Way special Discovery Points have been designated. There are over thirty Discovery Points in Co. Mayo and seven in the Achill area. Achill Island and Achill Water’s Edge is ideally located midway along the Wild Atlantic Way route – a perfect base to discover all that Co. Mayo has to offer and decide on your next destination along the route.
