Killala is an ideal destination for the keen fisherman looking for a few days’ angling, where a varied catch is guaranteed. There are registered boat owners available to take groups out deep-sea angling. Perhaps you would like to use one of these to take a family evening trip out into the Bay to enjoy the sunset on the crest of the wild Atlantic Ocean. Less than 10 minutes away in Ballina, is the River Moy, world-renowned for salmon fishing.

Traditional Irish music is on offer in most of the pubs in Killala at the weekends and often on weeknights too.
