Rosses Point - Discover one of County Sligo's most beautiful coastal villages.

Located on a scenic peninsula overlooking Sligo Bay, Rosses Point is one of County Sligo's most popular seaside destinations. Renowned for its spectacular coastal views, sandy beaches and maritime heritage, the village offers the perfect combination of relaxation, outdoor activities and breathtaking scenery along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way.

Standing on a rocky outcrop offshore, the Metal Man has become one of the area's most recognisable landmarks.

The village is also home to Sligo Yacht Club and the prestigious County Sligo Golf Club, which hosts the renowned West of Ireland Championship each year. Visitors can enjoy sailing, golf, swimming, walking and a wide range of water sports while taking in magnificent views across the Atlantic Ocean towards Benbulben and the surrounding coastline.

Rosses Point's long sandy beach is perfect for relaxing summer days, family outings and coastal walks, while nearby cafes, restaurants and traditional pubs provide an ideal place to unwind after exploring the area.
