ABOUT THE AREA

Ballycastle - Baile an Chaisil - the town of the stone fortress lies on the beautiful, rugged coast of North Mayo. its northern boundary is exposed to the Wild Atlantic Ocean, to the west are the lovely Stags of Broadhaven (600 million year old rocks), to the east lies Killala Bay, to the south are the towns of Crossmolina and Ballina.

Ballycastle is a small but thriving community which has much to offer visitors. We have a rich history, going back at least 5000 years. Ancestors left evidence of their way of life at the Ceide Fields where an interpretative Centre has been built. We have long sandy beaches and tall threatening cliffs along the seafront. The cliffs at Ceide reach a height of 365 feet and give a panoramic view of horizontal layers of sandstone 350 million years old.

Myth, legend, history and folklore all thrive in this ancient place. One can be entertained for hours with stories from the time of our patron saint, St. Patrick, through the darker days of the Penal times, when his followers sought hiding in the bleak bog land and onto more recent anecdotes of fair days and football matches. But Ballycastle does not live in its past, it grasps its present while reaching out to the future. Ballycastle and its environs, due to the diligence and enthusiasm of its community has made much progress in recent years.
