I am surprised that no one mentioned that those Bee-Hive huts on the Skellic island was where they filmed a few scenes for starwars. It was supposed to be Luke Skywalker's sanctuary or something - not a starwars fan. I drove down with the wife and kids for a weeks holiday and while we were there the film crew were scouting out the location. No actors just the crew but they were staying in a cottage near ours.
I crossed Carrik-a-Reed bridge when it was planks and rope, i did it but have a serious fear of heights so it took some hours to get the courage to do the return journey 😂 I'm from the Aran Is, Bill Doyle photographer has great pics from the 60s, his books Island Funeral and The Aran Islands are gorgeous
My dad was from Ireland and my mother’s parents were from Ireland. I visited Ireland 3 times visiting family and yes it is very green there. The weather has a lot to do with it. It rains a lot and mists. Looking down from a plane it looks like a patchwork quilt because of all the stone walls separating the fields. Every field is a different color green. They say Ireland has 40 shades of green. It is beautiful.
Hi Dar! I know for a fact that the green in the video is accurate. I've been there and I found the green to be amazing. On days that have some clouds and some sun breaking through, the lit parts actually glow like glow-in-the dark neon green. Amazing! Thanks for reviewing this!
what you see in the video is the real thing.. Ireland is know as the "Emerald Isle" . There are about 18 different shades of green here and that is due to a very moderate climate. Neither too hot nor too cold and of course abundant rain
The rock formations of the giants causeway go all the way to Scotland (Fingals Cave). If you visit the causeway you must try to go in the winter or early in the morning as there are often large crowds.
The video is great but you have to come to Ireland to see the real bueaty and most of all the people we are the most welcoming of people to visitors so please do come visit we are known as the land of a thousand welcomes.❤😊🇮🇪
Éire is Ireland. Saxons added the word LAND to the places the went, Eire became Eireland, Éireland was too Gaelic for the Anglo Saxons so the removes the É.
Visiting Ireland would have to be done a few times to actually see it The cliffs and the giants causeway are all the typical tourist spots. We have over 100 thousand heritage sites one of the most in Europe with two of them being world heritage sites which is huge for a small island considering the pyramids are world heritage sites.
okay but can we stop calling it i-er land its just ar-land respectfully 💀 -from a very irritated irish person bc everyone miss pronounces their country ~ thank you

Skellig is where Luke Skywalker lived in the new star Wars movies. They filmed on the island a few yrs back

We get a shit tone of rain throughout the year. That's why it's so green
we get a lot but a lot of people tend to really exagerate how much
I was born and raised on the north coast of Ireland, a truly beautiful place.
We have dolphins too it can look so tropical
And the leatherback turtles
The Giants causeway is also right across the sea in Scotland. Beautiful
The rock formations of the giants causeway go all the way to Scotland (Fingals Cave). If you visit the causeway you must try to go in the winter or early in the morning as there are often large crowds.
Welcome to Ireland bro😊
I'm Irish and it's really like living in a fairytale . The scenery is amazing and I love the people ❤
Ireland has a lots of stunning sights. Have you seen my lovely Norway?
In relation to the dark hedges you said it looks familiar, if you’re a fan of game of thrones that’s the road to winterfell ☺️
Getting married in August next to the gap of dunloe - can't wait!
Congratulations Rosalind and welcome to Ireland 🇮🇪❤️
Wishing you all the best.beautiful place
Did I miss the wedding..?
Also the cliffs of Mohair in the beginning were used in the Princess bride
Sorry but the cliffs are not hairy. They’re the Cliffs of Moher.
@@murpho999 no but mohair wool is very hairy...also didn't want to upset anyone from the he/she ..him/ her side..!
If u wanna visit I’d suggest June or July best weather
