Easky or Easkey is a village in County Sligo, Ireland. It is on the Atlantic coast, 26 miles (42 km) from Sligo and 15 miles (24 km) from Ballina, County Mayo. The village name derives from the Irish language term for fish ("iasc") and "Iascaigh" literally means "abounding in fish", due to the Easky River that lies adjacent to the village itself. Easky, as a parish, was originally called "Imleach Iseal". The area is a tourist destination on account of its scenery and water sports. Easky is a designated area on Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way tourist route.
