The Aran Islands
Doolin is the closest mainland port serving the Aran Islands. These three stunningly beautiful islands are an off shore extension of the Burren and are one of the last out-posts of Gaelic civilisation where Irish is still the native language of their inhabitants.
A number of passenger ferries will take you across to the islands in 30 minutes. There are several crossings daily during the summer season. (weather permitting)
