Salthill

This popular resort near Galway City features an old-fashioned seaside promenade, complete with a beautiful long, sandy beach along Galway Bay. The resort area still maintains traditional amusement arcades, a fairground for festivals, and cafes.

Salthill was the inspiration for the Bing Crosby song containing the famous lyrics, “to sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh, and see the sun go down on Galway Bay”.
