Galway spots

#1 Post by robbiemag »

Headin to Galway the weekend with a mate who is running the marathon. We are stayin in Galway city. Looking to do a few hours during the day on Saturday. Does anyone know any spots in or around the city or would I be better off headin to Clifden for a ray or something.
