New two-night experience invites visitors to explore Inishturk and Clare Island, Co. Mayo
A brand-new and unforgettable adventure is launching off the Mayo coast this September, inviting visitors to explore two of Ireland’s most captivating islands, Inishturk and Clare Island, through a unique and fully immersive island-hopping experience.
The new offering, called Atlantic Island Escapes, features an exclusive two-night all-inclusive adventure designed by locals and crafted to showcase the very best of island life, food, culture and heritage. With limited availability, the three September packages present a rare opportunity to dive deep into the authentic spirit of the islands.
Guests will enjoy highlights such as lobster fishing, sea swimming on Tránaun Beach, guided tours of Grace O’Malley’s castle, private whiskey tastings, artisan weaving sessions, and farm-to-fork dining all led by the people who call these islands home.
Speaking about the new initiative, Anna Deegan, Island Tour Agent co-ordinating the experience said:
“This is not just a trip, it’s an experience curated by the islanders themselves. We want visitors to feel like part of the community and to take away something deeper than just photos.”
With meals, activities, ferry transport, and accommodation all included, this package offers incredible value and direct support for the local island economies. This initiative is part of a wider commitment to sustainable tourism, with an emphasis on overnight stays, local food sourcing, eco-friendly practices, and community benefit.
This pilot programme is proudly supported by Fáilte Ireland as part of the implementation of the Clew Bay Destination Experience Development Plan, aimed at strengthening and promoting sustainable tourism across the region.
