Why Book a Fishing Holiday in North West Ireland?

North West Ireland offers unspoilt natural beauty and exceptional fishing opportunities, from wild Atlantic rivers to peaceful inland loughs.

The River Moy in County Mayo is world-famous for salmon fishing, while Lough Melvin, on the Leitrim/Fermanagh border, is celebrated for its unique species of trout. The River Erne and Lough Gill also attract anglers from across Europe.  Bear in mind that you will need a state license, as well as a permit or day ticket to fish in Ireland.

For sea fishing, the rugged coastline around Donegal Bay and Sligo offers excellent sport, with charter boats available for deep-sea trips. When not fishing, visitors can enjoy hiking Benbulben, exploring the Slieve League Cliffs, or cycle quiet country lanes or enjoy exploring the scenic Irish countryside on foot.
