Description

County Mayo is one of the best destinations in Ireland.

And it sees far less visitors than some of the other counties — which I think make it even better (fewer crowds!)

County Mayo has some charming villages with awesome pubs.

It has a national park — Wild Nephin & Ballycroy National Park — and a Dark Sky Park.

There are hills and peaks along with some peaty bogland.

The coastline is amazing with sandy beaches and sea cliffs.

And County Mayo has some incredible historical sites — from castles to the all important Céide Fields.

I love this county!

And I think you will too.

So tune in to find out about all the amazing things to do in this Irish county.
