10. Trip to Inishbofin Island off the coast of Connemara, Co. Galway
The sheep arriving Cleggan harbour from Inishbofin. There are fairly regular boats to Inishbofin from Cleggan harbour.
Approaching Inishbofin Island, off the Atlantic Coast of Connemara, Co. Galway and a good day and way to celebrate Phil and Molly's 31st wedding anniversary!
A white sandy beach on Inishbofin, looking landward to the Hills and Mountains of Connemara. It is an island of peaceful fertile green fields and sandy beaches with the odd coastal rocky bit on the 'open' Atlantic side. You can easily walk around it in one day still have time to get the boat back.
Walking around Inishbofin Island in a day and few people around.
The highly weathered and 'battered' west (and nothing but) the Atlantic coast of Inishbofin Island, a complete contrast to the sandy beached sheltered eastern side and Connemara mountain backdrop, giving a greater 'wild island' feel to the walk. |
