One of the Coolrea Peninsula\u2019s Most Gorgeous Seaside Escapes<\/h1>

Positioned below the shadow of the formidable Knocknarea Mountain on the Coolrea Peninsula, Strandhill<\/strong><\/a> is one of Sligo\u2019s most charming coastal gems. A true Irish village at heart, Strandhill’s charm lies in its friendly people, surrounding peaks, and the wild roar of the Atlantic.<\/p>

When hunger calls, stroll over to Shells Caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/a>, where the fish and chips come golden and crispy alongside a yummy serving of lemon mayo. Nab one of the benches outside and watch the surfers carve through the pounding waves that the West is known for.<\/p>

By the time the bellies are full, you\u2019ll have enough fuel for the Culleenamore walk, a proper favorite among locals and their pups. You\u2019ve got two routes you can take. If your energy levels are low, the quick 45-minute loop through the Shelley Valley will suit. However, the 90-minute ramble down around the bend of Strandhill Beach is well worth the extra push for anyone with more fuel left in the tank.The Strandhill lifestyle is all about taking it easy, and Voya Seaweed Baths<\/strong><\/a> is a great way to do just that. Slip into a warm tub and experience a soothing Irish ritual that has been passed down through generations. Soak in organic, hand-harvested seaweed, and let your mind and body get the rest they deserve.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
