FornaisIsland · 494 ydSéipéal Réalt na Mara [Catholic Church of the Star of the Sea]Church/chapel · 1688 yd

Explorer Tom Séipéal Réalt na Mara in Lettermullan was run by a matchmaker who knew every secret in the village. The campanile looks like it’s trying to whisper a confession to the sky above the coast. Go on a wet day, it suits the moody atmosphere perfectly.

Explorer Tom Castle in Leitir Mealláin commands a tidal channel, which is fancy talk for 'it gets wet'. Ochaghy owned it until time came along and demolished his furniture. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next before the sheep start asking questions.

Explorer Tom Holy well in An Máimín is right by a stream crossing point where locals probably slip more than they should. Have a wander and a wonder.

An Tóin DubhHeadland · 2.2 miTowerSignal tower · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Tower on Gólam is stuck on a tiny tidal island, complaining to the council about the lack of Wi-Fi. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming party for next Tuesday.

quay/wharf2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Maumeen Quay used to handle heavy maritime trade, but now it mostly handles local gossip and the occasional muddy boot. Locals swear if you step on it at dawn without a prayer, your luck goes south. Perfect detour when the rain starts acting up again.
