Mallaranny[1] (Irish: an Mhala Raithní, meaning "the hill-brow of the ferns")—sometimes spelt as Malaranny, Mullaranny, Mullranny or Mulranny—is a seaside village on the isthmus between Clew Bay and Blacksod Bay in County Mayo, Ireland. Mallaranny is the home of colourful giant fuchsias and exotic plants. This plant life is celebrated each summer during the Mallaranny Mediterranean Heather Festival .
Mallaranny has long sandy blue flag beaches and a relatively mild climate. The Corraun Peninsula, which contains three mountain peaks, is situated across Clew Bay.
