A Family Day out in Salthill

Take a walk with Noirin and Family, see what they learned about Salthill.
Who doesn’t like a day at the seaside! The smell of the sea and the seaweed, the sound of the waves, the barking dogs, the sand in your sandwiches and in between your toes when you go to put your socks back on! These may all sound a bit cliché, but for many of us, even those who grew up far from the sea, these things make very strong childhood memories.
Salthill provides the opportunity for all these things, plus so much more. Over the last 15 years my family, first myself and my husband, then my children and finally our dog have had some great days out in Salthill, in all seasons and weather, from an hour to a whole day.
In this post my children (12 and 10 years of age) provide a list of some of their favorite things to do, places to eat and added extras, as we couldn’t fit everything into one list!

Salthill has a host of amenities and things to do, so always plan ahead!
One of the reasons we love Salthill is that the area provides a mixture of free and fee-paying attractions, indoor and outdoor, suitable for a mixture of ages, all in a setting with parking, footpaths and bus access, and a whole range of services such as shops, pharmacies, and banks in case of emergencies. You will also find a range of restaurants to cater for all taste buds and price ranges (see www.salthill.com for more details).

​So why not head our way, feel the sea air, make some family memories, or maybe go for a walk on the prom by yourself, it may sound cliché, but Salthill is a great place to make happy memories no matter what age you are.
