Aran Island Ferries
Review
Aran Island Ferries offers an unforgettable journey from Rossaveel in Connemara to the beautiful Aran Islands year-round and to Inis Mór and the Cliffs of Moher from Galway City seasonally. Travelling on state-of-the-art vessels which are the biggest passenger-only ferries in Ireland, you’ll enjoy a smooth and scenic crossing with a friendly and professional onboard team who ensure your safety and comfort from start to finish. Upon arrival, you’ll be transported back in time to experience a way of life that remains deeply rooted in Irish tradition. Whether you explore on foot, or via a charming pony and carriage ride, you’ll be captivated by the island’s unspoiled beauty and rich heritage. Nature lovers will be in their element here, with plenty of opportunities to spot wildlife, so don’t forget your binoculars. Cyclists can bring their bikes aboard for a small fee, though advance booking is highly recommended due to limited space. All in all, Aran Island Ferries is a superb gateway to one of Ireland’s true hidden gems.
