Voya Seaweed Baths Strandhill offers certified organic seaweed bathing on the Atlantic beach of Strandhill, County Sligo, where sustainably harvested bladderwrack from the wild intertidal zone is prepared in deep baths filled with heated seawater to release its natural iodine, fucoidan, and alginate compounds in a treatment validated for anti-inflammatory and skin-nourishing properties. The headland of Knocknarea towers above Strandhill, its summit crowned by the enormous cairn of Queen Maeve, the mythological queen of Connacht celebrated in the Ulster Cycle, whose burial mound stands as one of the largest passage tomb monuments in Ireland at an estimated 40,000 tonnes of stone. The combination of wild Atlantic seaweed therapy beneath one of Ireland's most mythologically charged landscapes makes Strandhill an experience that connects the body to the ancient and elemental rhythms of the Irish west coast.

Insider tip — Maeve's cairn on Knocknarea (3,000 years old) is the largest cairn tomb in Ireland — the Queen of Connacht from the Ulster Cycle is said to be buried there standing upright, facing her enemies. Organic seaweed and Celtic mythology.
