Irish islands you need to visit

[jw5]

If you're a fan of nature and the slower-paced life, perhaps you should consider adding Ireland's islands to your travel bucket list. Apart from the jaw-dropping, raw, and rocky coastline, the islands themselves are home to rare wildlife, with many also containing ruins that offer a window into the past. It's not difficult to imagine the myth of ancient Irish folklore as you explore these landscapes. What's more, the western location of these islands make them the perfect place to get a front row seat to some of the most stunning sunsets you'll witness!
