Skellig rocks, eight miles off the west Kerry coast
This was once the
spartan retreat of a group of hardy monks, who
sheltered, from all that the elements had to test
them with, in the stone beehive-shaped cells at the
summit of the Island of Skellig Michael.
These islands are
steeped in atmosphere and history. There has
occasionally been talk of closing the island to
sightseers so, if you can, put this on your
itinerary. It is worth it just for the experience of
the crossing.
