There’s good news this morning for the proposed Wild Atlantic Way Discovery Point at Keem Bay in Achill.
Fáilte Ireland is allocating €150,000 to Mayo County Council to begin the design phase of the discovery project.
The council will contribute €50,000, which means an investment of €200,000 in progressing the discovery point, which will attract an increased number of visitors to Achill Island –that’s according to the Minister for Rural & Community Development Michael Ring.
The Discovery Point was announced three years ago, and will see the construction of a viewing platform over Keem Bay.
The project is expected to cost over €4 million euro in total.
