Sligo Is Open - A Wild Atlantic Way Destination for Normal People

Описание: As the country begins to reopen, we want to inspire and inform you of the many ways that a domestic holiday in Sligo can safely answer our shared need to escape, to reconnect, to re-discover living more fully again.

A visit to Sligo is more than “just a staycation”. It will be the trip of a lifetime. Because at a time when the world has never felt more unpredictable, Sligo has the best of everything; food, hospitality, culture, stunning landscapes, roaring oceans, huge empty beaches and welcoming people. And it’s just down the road.

This video shows footage of just some of Sligo's open spaces, scenes from Streedagh beach (site location for Sally Rooney's Normal People) and as Ireland's adventure capital we showcase some of the great activities like surfing, hiking, trail running, kayaking, mountain biking and coasteering that will keep you busy while you're here.

The script includes lines from WB Yeats' poems 'The Song of Wandering Aengus' and 'Who Goes with Fergus'

Come visit. Sligo is open.

Video Script:

"Through hollow lands and hilly lands
As the brightening air warms the sands
And friends greet with outstretched hands
Our doors are open once again.

Beyond the mountains watchful gaze
Pierce the deep woods woven shade
And watch the waves until twilight fades
These memories we’ll share, my friend.

You never know what life will bring
So find space to roam and a song to sing
Blow adventures fire a-flame, whether Queen or King
And know that here you’re welcome.

Sligo. Sets your spirit free."
