TOUR 3

Day trip to the Aran Islands.

Ferry boats travel daily (weather permitting) from Doolin, to the Aran Islands, just off the coast of north Clare.

Although part of County Galway, Doolin is the closest mainland point to Inishere, the smallest of the Aran Island group. Irish is the first language of the islanders.


Inishere has the facilities to cater for the many visitors it sees each year yet still maintains the traditional island lifestyle. It boasts a magnificent stretch of beach beside the pier. Lose yourself on one of the many narrow laneways that divide small flower filled stone walled fields. Inishere's cemetery is unique, overlooking the Atlantic on a high sand dune. The ruins of a 15th C. O’Brien tower house built inside an earlier stone fort can be seen from anywhere on the island.
