Fairy Bridge

The Fairy Bridge is a small bridge over the Santon Burn in the Isle of Man, located on the primary A5 Port Erin to Douglas road. A superstition associated with the Fairy Bridge is that passers-by must greet the fairies as they cross it; it is considered bad luck not to greet them. The bridge is also known as a place where people leave trinkets and flowers, and some visitors have reported feeling a sense of eeriness and peacefulness while standing there. There is also an alternative Fairy Bridge located in the parish of Braddan, which is considered the 'real' Fairy Bridge by some. The area around the bridge is suitable for leisurely walks, and the nearby Great Camera Obscura offers stunning views of the surrounding waters, where dolphins and whales can be spotted during certain times of the year
