Skellig Michael, off the tip of the Iveragh Peninsula, holds an early Christian monastery listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Landing trips and round-the-islands cruises run in the summer season from Portmagee and Ballinskelligs, weather permitting. Book ahead, and expect trips to be cancelled in rough seas.
