Gallery 4 - The Skellig Islands

Hello! You are in the right place if you are looking for information on and pictures of the Skellig Islands (or Skellig Rocks or just Skelligs). Click on Gallery 4 for Skellig Islands Pictures and on Home for all of my photography site.

The Skelligs are two islands off the Kerry coast in Ireland. The larger one, Skellig Michael, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is home to some of the earliest monastic settlements in Ireland and a truly magic place to be. For further reading I recommend the following links:

- Boat trips to the Skelligs with Des Lavelle.

- A good article from the Diocese of Kerry.

- Irish Monastic Sites: Skellig Rock

- The Skelligs page of The Moorings, Portmagee, Ireland.

- The Islands Guide from  the Irish Sea Kayaking Association.

  This link takes you to the Valentia section; scroll down for Skelligs.

- Loreena McKennitt has a "Skellig" song on her album "The Book Of Secrets".
