About
Embrace the rugged and exposed elements of the southwest coast of the island of Ireland and peek into what life was like for lighthouse keepers and their families on Valentia Island keeping watch over the North Atlantic.
Located in one of the most scenic areas on the edge of Europe, facing into the prevailing weather, Valentia Island Lighthouse is home to the most westerly harbour light on the island of Ireland, guiding vessels through the northern entrance to Valentia Harbour.
Explore the 17th-century artillery fort located at Cromwell Point and the 19th-century lighthouse building soaking up the stories and science against a background of the dramatic scenery of the Skellig Coast on the Wild Atlantic Way.
