When to visit Sligo

Sligo's peak tourist season is during the summer months. This period benefits from an increase in transport options. Ferries are a popular way of getting from the UK to Ireland but it is also possible to get a flight to Sligo and arrange car hire from Sligo Airport. For a quieter experience, visit in the spring when the weather is beginning to warm up or in autumn when the summer warmth is fading and the leaves on the trees start to turn a golden colour.
