Introduction
Northern Ireland's lake district centers around the linked waterways of Upper and Lower Lough Erne, creating an island-studded landscape unique in Ireland. Ancient monastic settlements on islands like Devenish speak to centuries when water provided both protection and connection. The remarkable Marble Arch Caves Global Geopark reveals an underground world of rivers and waterfalls carved through limestone over millennia. Fishing, boating and water sports define Fermanagh's recreation, while historic manor houses like Florence Court and Castle Coole showcase grandeur from another era. This is a county best appreciated at water level, where time seems to move at the pace of ripples across a lake.
