Westport

Westport

Westport is a town on the edge of an Atlantic inlet, on Ireland's west coast. In the Georgian town centre, stone bridges link the tree-lined promenade on the banks of the Carrowbeg River. Rockfleet Castle and Burrishoole Abbey, both to the northwest, have ties to the 16th-century pirate queen, Grace O' Malley. The Great Western Greenway bike and pedestrian trail runs from Westport to Achill Island, in the northwest.
