Review & FAQ:
The Salthill Promenade is a 1.2-mile walkway running along the northern inner shore of Galway Bay that offers beautiful views of the Aran Islands and the Atlantic Ocean. A favorite with locals and tourists alike, the promenade attracts walkers, joggers, cyclists, and leisure-seekers wanting to enjoy the fresh sea air and soak up the lovely views. Tradition calls for people on the promenade to kick the wall opposite the diving boards at the end of the boardwalk before turning around. The promenade is lined with plenty of cafés, restaurants, and bars for wining and dining, as well as other forms of entertainment such as the Galway Atlantaquaria, a wind-battered diving platform, penny slot machines and some of the best ice cream parlors in the county.
