We camped by tent at Strandhill Campsite for the first few days of our stay in Sligo. It was reasonably priced, and is situated right next to Knocknarea Mountain. There's nothing like waking up in the morning, unzipping your tent and seeing the sun rise over Sligo Bay with a giant mountain to your left :o)
Unique Quality: As it's placed right next to Knocknarea it's a great place to camp if you're interested in climbing the mountain (and I'd recommend that you do!:)
Opinion of Price: about average

Seaweed baths, as the name implies, are baths full of hot water and seaweed freshly brought up from the Atlantic coast of Ireland. I tried the ones at Strandhill, as recommended by a local. It was 20 euro, and well worth it. First, there is a steam sauna to open your pores, then the bath itself where you relax for an hour. Your skin and psyche feel wonderful afterwards, and the seaweed is reputed to give benefits to skin conditions such as exzema and psoriasis as well as arthritic conditions.
Sligo is stunning!

Perfect, and as yet, unspoilt beaches (however, they're working on ruining the landscape with some hotels as we speak). Strandhill is a popular surf beach and the Celtic Seaweed Baths are there....well worth 20 euro imho and this beach is right outside the seaweed bath place!! What a view.
