The Worm Hole (Poll na bPeist)

Reviewed By Tjorne18

In July 1971 my girlfriend and I dived into the swimming pool. We had no idea it was linked with the ocean. When we told locals, they were appalled. Inishmor 1971 was before electricity and cars. Ferry out of Galway once a week. Today’s visitors have no idea what a wonderful place it was. Tripadvisor seems not to like trips down memory lane. Hence July 2020!

Aran Bike Hire

Reviewed By 0seamusr

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. The proprietor was also very kind to extend the rental an extra day at no charge when my party missed the ferry. Highly recommend.
