A beautiful place to visit no matter the weather (just don't forget you hat, scarf & gloves on a cold day). It is just a short walk from the Salthill prom where you'll find free on street parking. It is a sad story to recall rhe families that were forever separated but also a story of hope that they'll forever be remembered but the generations that come to visit and bring their stories home.

I saw these from a distant, not knowing what they were, and went to investigate. Glad I did, it was a very moving experience. After such a beautiful day exploring the coast, to be brought up against the fact that so many were forced to leave their homes behind - well, it was a profound moment.

A beautiful famine ship memorial on the coast of Salthill. There are benches and an awesome place for picnic. Peaceful and serene views 💯
