The main pier viewed from across the harbour at Cromwell's Fort. The island has a good few hotels, guesthouses, self-catering accommodation and some excellent restaurants. It is famous for its traditional Irish music in the pubs in the evenings.
Entering the Harbour		 The sun shone generously - photos taken during a week when the rest of Ireland was being inundated and England almost disappeared under water.
Sunny Inishbofin		 Not one of the official walks as it's a bit dangerous but it's an interesting hike around the harbour - only accessible at low tide and good shoes needed.
Cromwell's Fort
The view from Cromwell's Fort. Built in 1652 Cromwell turned the island into a penal colony for priests.
Looking Out		 This flock of geese wanders around the island's harbour area unperturbed by humans. Here seen at Cromwell's Fort.
