The small town of Galway actually has an Atlantic beach where you can swim

Depart from Dublin on Sunday and take the earliest Irish Rail 🚄, student tickets are half price for a round trip at only 16.6 euros! It’s a great deal! ✨However, it is strongly recommended that you do not come on Sunday, as you may return too early and miss the dîner meal 😢. It’s best to go on Saturday, when there’s a lively market to visit! Although Galway is not big, one day is enough for you to experience this charming town. 🙌 During my exploration, I also accidentally discovered a golden beach where you can swim! 🥳 🔍 **Itinerary Recommendation:** 📍 **Eyre Square** A small ** outside the train station, there are many small shops and galleries, you can search on Google in advance and go shopping. 📍 **Galway Cathedral** This spectacular cathedral is worth a visit. If there is a service on Sunday, you need to wait until the service is over before entering. 📍 **Galway University** Very close to the church, the campus is exquisite and lovely, a good place to take photos and check in📸. 📍 **Spanish Arch** Close to the seaside of the main city, there are many colorful houses, it is a great place to relax! There is also a lively market on the weekends, and I couldn’t help but buy a super beautiful handmade necklace 🌙. 📍 **Barna Woods National Forest Park** 5.9 km away from Spanish Arch, I chose to hike there, the mysterious forest scenery is intoxicating! 🚶🏻‍♀️💚 📍 **Silverstrand Beach** Just 950 meters out of the forest you will reach the beach! That road leading to the Atlantic Ocean is simply intoxicating! The water here is slightly cool, perfect for swimming, and many locals often come here! 🌟 🍽️ **Restaurant recommendation:** - **Hungry Eyes** ✨ (Google 4.6 points) 📍 11 Mary St, Galway, H91 T227 Note: Their brunch is super delicious, but the main course needs to be ordered after 12 o'clock, so remember to arrange the time! 😉 - **Hooked** ✨ (Google 4.7 points) 📍 65 Henry St, Galway, H91 DP78 I really wanted to eat their oysters, but I didn’t make it, what a pity! 😩 I must make up for it next time!
