Westport is small enough to get around by foot, however most people use Westport as a base, and then you will have to think about getting a car, bike or hiking around by foot.The public transport around Westport is not all that good, so you will need to get a car. It is easy enough to rent via one of the mainstream agencies, or you can try getting a Taxi. Bikes can also be rented quite easily.
Hitchhiking is also done a lot here and it is quite easy to get a lift up to, for example Achill, or Croagh Patrick.
