Om
Hurtige fakta: En storstrålende 10.000 hektar stor bugt med 365 øer, en for hver dag på året. Lokal legende siger, at hver ø blev dannet, da en kæmpe tabte en pose sten i vandet.
Højdepunkter: Dorinis Island har en aktiv pub, der får sin post leveret med båd, og hvor samme familie har drevet den siden 1885. Du kan padle i kajak over ved lavvande, få en øl og padle tilbage, før vandet stiger igen.
Insidertips
- Rent a bike from Westport and take the Great Western Greenway along the bay for sea views without any car traffic.
- Pack binoculars to spot seabird colonies on the smaller islands that are inaccessible by foot.
- Drive 10 minutes up Croagh Patrick at sunset for a panoramic view of the entire bay from above.
- Ask a local ferry operator about the islands that only appear during spring low tides, not all 365 are always visible.
