How to Get to Inishnabro #

Tips for Visiting Inishnabro #

  • Island access requires a private boat; hire from nearby Dingle or from ports on the Blasket Islands chain - negotiate and confirm the return time.
  • There are no facilities; bring everything needed for a short visit and respect nesting seabirds during breeding season (May-July).
  • Look for traces of stone walls and old field boundaries - the island has subtle archaeological remains many visitors miss.
