Intro 0:00
0:32 Peel Castle
A Viking stronghold, Peel Castle stands on St Patrick's Isle, linked to the town of Peel by a causeway. The rugged coastline and the ruins of the castle outer walls make this an interesting stop.
02:00 Niarbyl Bay
Down a long winding lane, past the cafe and steep hill, you arrive at Niarbyl Bay.
Secluded and quaint, you suddenly feel like a fisherman from years gone by.
03:14 The Calf of Man
Calf of Man is a 2.50-square-kilometre island, off the southwest coast. It is separated from the Isle of Man by a narrow stretch of water called the Calf Sound.
There is a cafe and some rugged walking trails too keep you occupied, and on some days you can see the seals basking on the rocks
04:28 Cregneash
A small charming village with a tourist museum, seen on map above.
Home to a flock of the rare four-horned Loaghtan sheep, much of the village is made up of a living museum with the small white cottages forming the exhibits. Inside the victorian farming and fishing equipment is displayed and demonstrated.
05:31 Isle of Man Steam Railway
Starting in Douglas and steaming east to Port Erin via Castletown this narrow gauge railway is a must do attraction. The scenery is stunning and is a superb way to spend an hour or so chugging along the countryside.
07:47 CastleTown
CastleTown is the former Capital of Manx, and is home to Rushen Castle. The narrow streets and fishing cottages make this a delightful place to walk around.
It also holds the annual world tinbath championships.
09:41 Ballaglass Glen
lovely glen to walk through, a nice wooded area with the river flowing through the middle of it with some fantastic waterfalls, and there’s a fairy house hidden along the river too. Plenty of quirks for kids too like the wizard statue along one of the paths.
11:25 Douglas
11:45 Laxey Wheel and Mine
Built in 1854 to pump water from the attached mine, Lady Isabella as she is known is the largest surviving wheel of its kind in the world.
14:07 Manx Electric Railway
Running from Douglas to Ramsey via Laxey this has to be the most picturesque heritage railway (tramway) I have ever been on.
Starting in Laxey and part of the Manx Electric Railway, the
14:29 Snaefell Mountain Railway
offers daily services to the summit.
15:03 Laxey Beach
17:45 Laxey to Ramsey Manx Railway
18:31 Ramsey Harbour
Town on the MANX Electric railway route.

A secret tax haven? Exploring Douglas, ISLE OF MAN
In this video, I explore Douglas, the capital of the Isle of Man.
The Isle of Man is a small island situated between Great Britain and Ireland, in the Irish Sea.
Despite its location, or perhaps because of it, the Isle of Man is a bit off the traditional tourist trail, which lends a bit of mystique to it. I wanted to see for myself what the island and its capital looks like.
After all, it has a reputation for being a tax haven (i.e. low effective taxation rates) and offshore banking destination, inhabited by cats with no tails and home to a big motorcycle race – so lots of interesting stuff to explore and learn about! Let’s go!
Visit the Isle of Man - and discover 10 Surprising Facts?
This short introduction to the Isle of Man offers ten curious facts about the island and its people.. Set in the Irish Sea, this island of mists, and myths, lore and legends, Ellen Vannin offers history and an overlooked holiday resort. Who would have expected to gind wallabies in the Irish Sea?
This video hardly mentions tailless cats or TT motorbike races but concentrates more on the natural beauty of the island and its customs, some of which have lasted over 1000 years.
How many people have heard of Loughtan sheep or a Trislelion. The whole island is a denoted UNESCO Biosphere reflecting the unique landscape and conservation work that protects so many precious characteristics of the island.
Future videos will explore detailed parts of the island including the capital, Douglas, Casttletown, Port St. Mary, Port Erin, Peel and Niarbyl where continental plates meet in a tiny bay.

Welcome to the Isle of Man
I have made this video with some trepidation, as showing the Isle of Man in a less than flattering light is something I have never done before. But since an MHK remarked on the poor state of parts of the Island recently, I thought I would highlight some of the issues in the hope that the powers that be would, at last, take things in hand and sort them out!
