Oh, and from the shore, you might even spot basking sharks on a serene and still summers day! 12.) Groudle Glen Right on the west coast of the Isle of Man, Peel is a small town that’s got a heap going for it – in fact, I’d say it’s one of the biggest towns to visit after Douglas. Whilst here, stop off at the Manx Museum, which is one of the best things to do on the Isle of Man to learn about the Island’s heritage. You see, the museum covers more than 10,000 years of island history and is a treasure-trove of information. though, truth-be-told, if you’re not into your museums, you might wanna give this one a miss! Charmingly illustrated by local artist, Julia Ashby Smyth, this beautifully presented book contains many iconic Manx tales from ‘The Making of Mann’ to ‘The Fynoderee’ and ‘The Moddey Dhoo’- all of which have been adapted for the modern reader. Complete with a specially recorded CD by Charles Guard, original music and sound effects bring fifteen key stories to life in-keeping with the drama and character of Manx culture and traditions. Visiting Port Erin is easily one of the best things to do on the Isle of Man if you love a good seaside galavant. With the sandy bay of Port Erin Beach and nearby Chapel Bay, you’ll be in for a lovely treat on a gorgeous sunny day.
Forests can be cycled individually or linked to make a full day’s riding by following way-marked routes that take advantage of the Island’s network of Byways and Greenway Roads.

A place full of colour, contrasts and character, with landscapes beyond your wildest dreams. Written by long time experienced walker, and resident of the Isle of Man, Alan Cooper, this book focuses on everything to do with the island’s iconic 100 mile coastal footpath- ‘Raad Ny Foillan’, Manx Gaelic for ‘Way of the Gull’.
