The oldest stories along the Skellig Coast have been held safe for us in the stones that endured millions of years exposed to the open wildness of the Atlantic. In this tour you have the opportunity to hear these stories, experience the magnificent views at which these sites are located and gather a real sense of the Skellig Coast, its people and unique heritage.

With your Local guide you can gain access to sites on and off the beaten track that are uniquely Irish, rare and unforgettable. The Skellig Coast is where Muiris calls home and he can introduce you to its place and people in a way that only a local can.
