Rainy Day Activities in Galway

Here are our favourite things to do on a rainy day with young kids (actually you could do them on sunny days and with older kids as well!)

  1. Visit the Aquarium then pop into Arabica for babychinos and honey bagels afterwards (Baby changing facilities available)
  2. Go for a Swimming Expedition - Leisureland, Kingfisher Club at NUIG & Renmore and Carlton Hotel all have public swim times (don’t forget the snacks for afterwards)
  3. Park the car at the Galway Shopping Centre, Headford Road, let them ride the carousels if younger, visit Poundstretchers for cheap treats, then stop by Supermacs for a special treat. Finish up at the soft play at Leisureworld. (Baby changing facilities available)
  4. Visit Charlie Byrne’s on Middle Street for their top-notch kids books section followed by either drinks and nibbles in the café behind the bookshop or lunch in child-friendly Milano’s (Baby changing facilities available in Milano’s for patrons)
  5. For kids that are old enough, take in a Matinee at the Eye Cinema or Omniplex in Galway or Oranmore
  6. Visit the Galway City Museum, you will find our Museum Detective sheet in there, designed by two local kids!
  7. Put on wellies and raincoats for brisk walk on promenade followed by brunch in Lohan’s or pizza or pasta at Da Roberta’s
  8. Park on the 4th level of the Merchants Road parking garage, ride the elevators into Eyre Square Shopping Centre, go for a jaunt on the walkalator in Dunnes, then stop for icecream or refreshments at the bottom of the Centre with a visit to the ABC bookshop to finish off (Baby changing facilities)
  9. Let them go wild at one of the soft play areas at City Limits in Oranmore, Busy Bees in Oranmore, Monkey Business in Knocknacarra or Leisureworld at the Galway Shopping Centre. (Baby changing facilities)
  10. While away some time at the Library: check here for story hour times
