Visit Isle of ManBrochureThe Isle of Man is located in the middle of the Irish Sea, off the North West coast of England. Stunningly beautiful with soaring green hills and rugged coastlines, the Island measures 33 miles long by 13 miles wide.
Around 40% of the land on the Isle of Man is undeveloped making a perfect haven for walkers and cyclists. There are more than 688 miles of roads, some 26 beaches and around 100 miles of coastline. Visitors can enjoy 10,000 years of history presented as ‘The Story of Mann’ which links medieval castles and ancient burial sites to a Viking longhouse and the Laxey Wheel - a model of Victorian engineering. All are operated by Manx National Heritage. Getting around is easy - an unsurpassed network of Victorian electric and steam railways make it a pleasure to explore a variety of scenic views and wildlife. The popular Victorian Horse Trams are also in operation, travelling along Douglas promenade. In the summer months you can see basking sharks cruising in the coastal waters and if you’re lucky you might spot a Harbour porpoise or a Risso’s dolphin, just two of the whale and dolphin species seen around the Island. You can also dive in some of the best underwater locations in the British Isles where you will often be joined by some of our curious seals. Sample local cuisine at a wide range of restaurants - enjoy Manx Queenies (succulent queen scallops), creamy award winning local cheese or succulent Loaghtan Lamb in many eateries around the Island. The Isle of Man operates in Sterling, so all visitors will receive excellent value for money.
