Westport Town Centre
Najlepší čas na návštevu
Late afternoon on a weekday, when the light catches the colored shopfronts along the river and the crowds thin out after the lunch rush.
Tipy na rozpočet
Walking around the town center is completely free. Most pubs and cafés serve hearty lunch specials under 12 euros, and the weekly Saturday market offers the best value for fresh local produce and handmade crafts.

O
Rýchle fakty: Mestská promenáda lemovaná stromami, The Mall, bola postavená na rekultivovanom riečnom močiari koncom 18. storočia a dnes ju zdobí vyše 200 bukov. Tri funkčné mosty preklenujú rieku Carrow Beg v úseku 200 metrov, každý ponúka iný pohľad na farebné výklady obchodov odrážajúce sa vo vode.
Zaujímavosti: Na Octagone, osemuholníkovom centrálnom námestí mesta, stojí 9-metrová žulová pyramída na mieste starého trhového kríža, kde kedysi farmári obchodovali s dobytkom. Každú sobotu ráno miestni rybári stále predávajú čerstvo ulovené makrely a kraby z korieb svojich dodávok na tom istom mieste, tradícia siahajúca celé generácie.
Insiderské tipy
- Skip the chain restaurants on the main street and head to Matt Malloy's pub for live traditional music sessions that start around 9pm.
- The best photo spot is from the stone footbridge beside the old grain mill, where the green and yellow shopfronts line up perfectly with Croagh Patrick behind them.
- Visit the Saturday morning market before 10am to avoid queues at the seafood and artisan bread stalls.
- If it's raining, duck into the Westport Book & Art Shop on Shop Street, a warren of seven small rooms filled with local history titles and prints.
