3About Lecanvey
Lecanvey is a quiet coastal spot in County Mayo that sits right across from Croagh Patrick, where thousands climb barefoot each July for the Reek Sunday pilgrimage. The village makes a handy base for exploring the Wild Atlantic Way, with grand views over Clew Bay and its scattered islands. It's just 8 kilometers west of Westport on the N59, with the scenic R335 hugging the bay if you fancy the coastal route. Most folk use it as a day trip from Westport, though it's well connected to the main road network for longer journeys via the N5 from Dublin.
