Walked all of the loops with friends visiting the area. Scenery along the cliffs is absolutely stunning. The Stags of Broadhaven and Erris Head (Again another loop walk destination) within sight and spectacular. Off the beaten track and undiscovered. Challenging enough hike for novices if doing full Benwee Loop. Proper walking boots and poles a must. The Loop towards Rinroe is easier for casual walkers but again I’d recommend proper footwear. This region doesn’t get enough recognition as a tourist destination. The town of Belmullet with all it’s amenities within a short drive and well worth as a stopover point for a few nights to explore the Mullet peninsula with it’s spectacular beaches Well worth going that little bit further West on the Wild Atlantic Way - it’s off the beaten track but you certainly won’t be disappointed.

4. Carne Golf Links
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 162 reviews
Carne Golf Links lies in magnificent unspoiled sand dunes overlooking Blacksod Bay and the wild Atlantic Ocean near Belmullet Co. Mayo in the west of Ireland. Carne was the last links course to be designed by the late Eddie Hackett and it is now believed by many who have played it to be his greatest challenge. The building of Carne has caused little disturbance to this wild and ancient landscape. Tees and greens occurred naturally and very little earth moving was involved in the course construction. Along the course are some breathtaking views over the Atlantic and the legendary islands of Inis Glóire and Inis Géidh

5. Blacksod Bay

This place is beautiful but at the time we visited the weather was beautiful & the scenery was stunning. The pier at Blacksod was busy with fishing boats & lots of other boats used for pleasure & reward. Visitors can get a boat or catamaran from the pier to the nearby Inniskea islands or have a day's fishing in the bay. The Inniskea islands are less than a 30 minute trip away & though they are now uninhabited, there are pristine beaches, ruins of the houses of previous residents, & historical sites & other interesting sites. Blacksod lighthouse is historical in its own right because it is from this very place that the weather signal for the allied troops to land at Normandy was sent in 1944. Whatever the weather, this is a delightful place to visit.

Not far from bellmullet the views of the coast are amazing. The sun shone and we were in awe coming off the beaten track to witness such a spot. Beautiful. Rough access roads so just take care driving along but absolutely worth it.
