This sea-bound kingdom is a place where the wonders of coastline and countryside, sea and shore, meet within a matter of minutes. It’ s full of colour, contrasts and character as well as rich history, traditions, heritage railways and friendly locals extending the warmest of welcomes.
The capital, Douglas, is the main hub for shopping and entertainment. It’ s also the start of the Story of Mann trail which acts as your guide to the island’ s heritage attractions. Horse-drawn trams“ clip clop” along the two miles of Douglas Promenade and it’ s the boarding point for both the Steam Railway and Manx Electric Railway, which lead south and north respectively.
In Castletown see Castle Rushen, one of Europe’ s best-preserved medieval castles; at Laxey glimpse
Lady Isabella, the world’ s largest working waterwheel; enjoy sandy beaches at Peel and Port Erin; and at Ramsey take a stroll around the impressive working harbour.
Come rain or shine the island is just the place for those who relish outdoor activities and exhilarating adventures. Enjoy also some of the best walking in the British Isles, you can spy majestic landscapes from coastal paths, country lanes and within 18 National Glens. The Isle of Man excels in the quality and variety of its locally produced food and drink – perfect for the foodie in everyone!
We highly recommend Isle of Man Heritage Passes from £ 47 per adult and Go Explore Passes from £ 53 per person for 3 days. Please ask for further details.
