Skellig Islands

World-renowned for their ornithological, archaeological and cultural significance, the Skellig Islands lay out to sea and can be reached by visitors on a small boat from Portmagee, Ballinskelligs or Caherdaniel. Skellig Michael, or Great Skellig, is a mysterious and awe-inspiring place of great history. Don't miss the 8th century early Christian hermitage, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit the Skelligs Experience Visitor Centre in Portmagee village to follow an audio-visual tour recreating the magic of this mystical region. Seek refuge from the Wild Atlantic weather at nearby St Finain's Bay, home to Skelligs Chocolate.
