Latest Portmagee hotel reviews
sabsi Says: Skelligs consist of two 'unreal' islands - Skellig Michael (Sceilg Mhicíl) and Little Skellig (Sceilg Bheag) . Latter one is populated by more than 20000 gannets - the white colour of the rock looks like a different kind of stone from the distance, when you look closer it's...
sabsi Says: The Skellig experienceThe Skellig heritage centre is a good place to go to after having been to the Skelligs to get more impression about the monks, birds or the lighthouse people who lived there. But don't think the Experience is replacement for making the trip over to the...
1 Review and 10 Opinions Wow, this place was like a woodland lodge, or an inn, or even hotel. I can't believe it was called a...
Beach Cove B&B: The best B&B ever!
sabsi Says: A house at a very deserted spot, the next bar is four miles over the hill. What a wonderful place it was for us to start our holidays! We had a wonderful huge seaview room. The best of the whole holiday. Great value (18 IEP per person sharing)!2 minute walk to the beach,...
The Bridge Bar: Excellent gumbo
Superbonanza Says: A nice pub that manages to be spacious without losing that cozy pub feel. The service was alarmingly speedy and friendly. Delicious gumbo served with a good hunk of bread. Goes great with Guinness (but what doesn't?)
Bridge Bar: Nice pub food in Portmagee
sabsi Says: All the food served in this pub seemed very tasty! As Portmagee is such a small place we were amazed that they offer such a big selection of food actually. Apart from that the pub is nothing special really - but locals seemed to like it! I had a lovely and huge portion of...

Getting to Skellig Michael is a big adventure!
sabsi Says: The quickest way to get to Skellig is to take the boat by Murphy Sea Cruise. It only takes 55 minutes from Portmagee. The boat leaves Portmagee at 10:30 a.m. - better ring before to make sure the boat will go. It only goes when the sea is calm enough (which still isn't...
sabsi Says: Here's a map I made of the places I am talking about.... it shows you the Ring of Kerry and the Skellig Ring - the little dots on the left are the Skelligs.
sabsi Says: Watch out for Kerry drivers ;-) If they overtake you with 90 mph on a very narrow street you sometimes think your final day has come ;-) On some places of Skellig Ring you are lucky if you don't meet anybody. Road can get very narrow here!
What to bring to Skellig Michael
sabsi Says: I was happy to have brought a waterproof backpack. Without it everything I have brought would have been wet after the cruise to Skellig Michael! Hiking boots will help you climb the 680 stairs up to the top! Bring weatherprove clothes for the boat trip, I was soaked when we...
sabsi Says: Just off the very touristy Ring of Kerry you will find deserted landscapes, breathtaking views and narrow roads that bring you nowhere. This pic is taken at the old pier of St. Finian's Bay.... a wonderful place! You can see the Skelligs in the background! But shhhhh, this...

Portmagee, Skellig Rocks and the Skellig Ring
The Skelligs are my favourite place in Ireland. They are two rock islands off the Kerry coast where there's only birds and steps and a ancient settlement on top. You will find more about this amazing...
