Sligo until now has been relatively unexplored, however as a destination it has literally every thing to offer.

There are several blue flag beaches within a 10 min drive from The Clarion. Strandhill is renowned for its International surfing. Freshwater and Deep sea fishing are also popular during the fishing season, sea fishing trips operate from Mullaghmore and Rosses Point, again just a few minutes from the hotel.
