Dromod is a noted fishing village beside Bofin and Boderg, which are threaded by the River Shannon. Built along the River Shannon, this is a Tidy Towns winner with a modern harbour frequented by cruiser traffic. The Bog Oak water feature in the centre of the village, entitled 'The Weeping Tree', and was made by a local craftsman from a piece of bog oak which was found nearby.

Dromod railway station opened on 3 December 1862 and remains in operation, despite closing for goods services on 3 November 1975.[2] Dromod also had a railway station on the narrow gauge Cavan and Leitrim Railway.
