The Spanish Arch

The Spanish Arch: Galway's Iconic Harbor Wall & River Views

4.8 (2123)

It is essentially a pile of 16th-century stones, but it is the perfect spot to park with a cider when the Galway sun hits. Spend twenty minutes here watching the Corrib river meet the bay. Skip the overpriced paid walking tours unless you crave deep-cut local history. Grab a takeaway from a nearby street stall and sit on the grass wall. If it is raining, keep moving; the wind here absolutely ruins your hair.

Address: 2 The Long Walk, Galway, Galway
