Cruises from Skellig Rocks
The jagged Skellig rocks, which are located 12km off the coast of Kerry, Ireland, are of such importance that they were added on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 1996. Rising majestically from the sea, Skellig Michael towers 218 m above sea level. On the summit of this awe-inspiring rock you will find, if you have been able to climb the 600 steps, a remarkably well preserved sixth-century monastic settlement.
