One of many O’Brien castles near Galway Bay, the one on Inisheer is crumbling but central to the island. Built on the highest point on Inisheer, the hike up is steep but the views are stunning. From the tourists who were climbing up the walls and posing to the busker who was playing guitar, the range of experiences are many.

Highly recommend this location for bike hire, very friendly staff and relatively affordable. Bikes are definitely the best way to experience the island, beautiful scenery at your own pace.
