The Ring of
Skellig - Skellig Rock [Kerry - Ireland] Skellig rocks, eight miles off the west Kerry coast. This was once the spartan retreat of a group of hardy monks, who sheltered, from all that the elements had to test them with, in the stone beehive-shaped cells at the summit of the Island of Skellig Michael.These islands are steeped in atmosphere and history. There has occasionally been talk of closing the island to sightseers so, if you can, put this on your itinerary. It is worth it just for the experience of the crossing. |
