Inishturk (Wild Boar Island) | Ireland, Ep. 17

Описание: Inishturk, which in Irish means Wild Boar Island, is a remote island off the coast of County Mayo, Ireland near neighboring Ballybeg, Caher and Clare Island. You can access Inishturk using the Clare Island Ferry at Roonagh Pier in Westport. If you're just there for a day, we suggest hiking around the island. With amazing views of Mweelrea and Croagh Patrick on the mainland to your east, make sure to take the longer loop to the opposite western coastline where you are greeted by spectacular views of Buachaill Mor and Buachaill Beag (Big Boy and Little Boy) as well as a cool shrine, the Tale of the Tongs, to the all the people who have left the island. There is also a restaurant/pub/community center near the ferry where you can get some delicious food and a pint of Guinness. Inishturk is simply an amazing, but overlooked destination along the Wild Atlantic Way and is one of the several practically untouched pre-Neolithic places we visited.

This video is the seventeenth of a daily video series of our travels to Ireland and Northern Ireland in June of 2018. From walking the lush greenery in the rugged hills and glens, hiking the breathtaking cliffs and coastal mountains, exploring caves and crags and remote off-shore islands, to the castles and ruins and hallmarks of pre-neolithic civilizations, we can honestly say it was one of the best times we have ever had. And do you know what was the most beautiful about the Emerald Isle? The people. In the cities or the countryside, to the north and the south, in pubs, tea rooms or during a walk. Some of the most warm, kind, affable (and usually very funny) people you will ever meet are in Ireland, and they'll be sure to fill you in on where all the good craic is.

If interested in our trip, please keep checking out this playlist as the series is released.
