Your Included Itinerary

Your Included ItineraryCastletown - Enjoy a visit to the ancient capital of Mann and discover the interesting facts and stories that this town has to tell. Capital of the Island until 1869, Castletown is made up of small  winding streets, picturesque fishing cottages along the harbour and a Viking castle that towers over the centre of the town.

Port St. Mary - Port St. Mary Beach or Chapel Beach, as it is also known, is situated in the southeast of the Island and has a pretty, sandy, sheltered beach. Port St. Mary has a small, but busy yacht harbour with fishing and sailing boats regularly coming and going. From Chapel Beach you can take a stroll over the “cat-walk” which leads to the inner and outer harbours. 

Port Erin - Picturesque Port Erin Beach sits in a sheltered bay bordered by the tall cliffs of Bradda Head to the north. The beach has stunning views to the Irish coast & the Mountains of Mourne in the distance. Looking up from the beach to the top of Bradda Head you can see the key-shaped Milner’s Tower, built in 1871 in memory of local philanthropist and locksmith William Milner.

Ramsey - Taking position as second largest town on the Isle of Man. You will find quite a lot on the busy shopping street of popular Ramsey. Wander through the pretty harbour or relax on the  beach as Ramsey boasts the most sunny spot on the island.

Peel - Enjoy a visit to Peel in the West of the Island. Visit the House of Manannan, the acclaimed interactive museum that explores the Island’s Celtic, Viking and maritime past. Explore Peel  Castle situated on St Patricks Isle, originally a place of worship before becoming the fort of Magnus Barefoot, or maybe visit Manx Moore Kipper Factory located on the quayside, where the World famous Manx kippers are smoked using oak chips in a century old tradition.

Laxey - A pretty village located on the east coast of the Island, best known for its large waterwheel, links to the Electric Railways, and garden glens.
