Skelligs

Skellig islands from Valentia Island through doorway of WWII coast watch building.

Monks lived an austere life on Skellig Micheal (the bigger/taller island) until the Vikings raided them out of it.

The Irish coast watch witnessed the demise of Allied and Axis planes around the Skelligs during WWII: crews of a US PTY and a He111 are remembered in the Skellig Experience in Portnagee.
