holiday homes on Aranmore Island
|
Arranmore, Árainn
Mhór, is in the Donegal Gaeltacht and is three miles from the
Donegal mainland coast. The island scenery is characteristic of the
Rosses area of Donegal with hills, rocks and small lakes dotting the
landscape. It is an ideal holiday location for walking, learning
Irish, diving, cycling, pubs and nightlife and sea and lake angling.
The island lies 3 miles off Burtonport and is served by two ferry
services, a conventional ferry that accommodates up to 128 foot
passengers and all sizes of vehicles. This journey takes 25 - 30
minutes. In 2007, a fast ferry service commenced which can cover the
run to the island in 5 minutes. Both services run daily all year.
The trip to the island affords spectacular views, passing a number
of small islands before crossing a stretch of open Atlantic water. |
