Families

The award winning Story of Mann offers 13 visitor attractions across the island, with multi site tickets available from the Sea Terminal Tourist Centre and Post Offices.  Travel back in time by visiting the Old Grammar School and “Peggy” story along with Castle Rushen in the ancient capital of Mann, Castletown.  A day trip to Peel including a visit to the House of Manannan, followed by a locally made ice cream on the wide sandy beach is guaranteed to keep all the family entertained.

The waters around the Isle of Man are renowned for their diversity of marine life, with many vantage points offering opportunities for spotting  seals, basking sharks, whales and dolphins.

Sandy dunes along the north and north west coasts of the island make ideal spots for a picnic, followed by a visit to the local Visitor Centre which would be of particular interest to bird watchers and nature lovers.

Everyone is welcome at the National Folk Museum at Cregneash, a working crofters homestead showing how life was lived in the 19th centuary.   Children will be particularly fascinated by life before the motor car, PCs and ipods.
