Activities & Attractions

With a wealth of things to see and do, you’ll have great fun exploring the Isle of Man’s attractions during your visit.

Here you can discover more than 100,000 years of Manx history as you journey around some of the Island’s heritage sites, ancient monuments and museums – many of which are open all year round.

The Isle of Man’s landscape hosts impressive ancient monuments from Viking burial sites to the earliest Celtic stone crosses. Many of these sites are under the protection of the Manx National Heritage and can be accessed at any time of year. Our top picks include Balladoole, which has revealed a number of historic finds and Cashtal yn Ard - the largest Neolithic tomb in the British Isles.

To learn a little more about the Island’s rich and fascinating history, The House of Manannan in Peel and Manx Museum in Douglas are bursting with interesting artefacts unique to the Isle of Man. Open all year round, both museums offer great insight into the Island’s Celtic, Viking and maritime past.

You can also follow in the footsteps of Christian missionaries, kings and Viking warriors to the impressive ancient fortress of Peel Castle or discover one of the best preserved medieval castles in Europe – Castle Rushen. Although access to the grounds of both castles is only available during certain times of the year, you are free to view and walk around the perimeter of the ancient fortresses at any time. The impressive heritage sites are certainly worth seeing, even if you can’t go inside.

For those interested in finding out even more about the Island, you can always check out the iMuseum – a digital online museum providing unprecedented access to the Manx National Heritage collections.

On a clear night, you could even try a spot of stargazing at any of the Island’s Dark Sky locations. Certain constellations are only visible at particular times of the year so make sure you check our handy star charts for seasonal variations.
