Straddling the River Moy near Ireland's northern Atlantic coast, the town of Ballina has roots dating as far back as 1375. Notable for its stone cathedral, the town features some well-preserved examples of both Georgian and Victorian architecture. Holidays in Ballina are increasingly popular with foodies, who go there to sample a range of fresh seafood dishes, prepared with salmon fished from the Moy. Take the guesswork out of planning a Ireland vacation by using our trip itinerary maker.
