Fabulous Sean Stack and Sea Cliffs on the Wild Atlantic Way.

Its about an hours drive down a very dramatic coast. its actually right beside Ceide Fields. The Ceide Fields visitors centre is great if you have a big interest in iron age settlements..... If however you like the coast view then walk to the edge of Dun Briste and you will have your breath taken away (literally if its blowing a gale) On the way back there is a coffee shop called Marys just as you enter the village of Balycastle. Its a lovely traditional place with amazing brown bread. well worth a visit and preferable I think to the coffee shop in Ceide Fields which is fine but a little generic.

Dun Briste – an Impressive Sea-Stack in North Mayo. In the town-land of Knockaun, 80 meters off Downpatrick Head stands a colossal, 50 meters in height, sea-stack called Dun Briste (The Broken Fort). The surrounding cliffs, including the rock formation, were formed about c. 350 million years ago, when the sea temperatures were much higher than today. Every year, Downpatrick Head is visited by birdwatchers who come to observe and record the many different species on the stack. 1.5 hrs drive from Westport - make a day trip out if it and plan to visit the Ceide fields as well.
