Within the town centre, you will find a range of museums including the Manx Museum and the Douglas Heritage Museum.

Take the walk up to the Falcon’s Nest to admire the view of Port Erin’s horseshoe bay from a height, on a clear day you can even spot the Mountains of Mourne in Northern Ireland on the horizon.
