WILD SWIMMING ON THE WILD ATLANTIC WAY (The Wild Atlantic Way || Mayo & Galway)

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
  • This week we return to the rugged west coast of Ireland, continuing our journey south along the Wild Atlantic Way.
    We start the episode my taking on Ireland's most holy mountain, Croagh Patrick, led by Kevin a nice man (and now friend) we met in the pub on Achill. After summiting the misty peaks, from whence St Patrick expelled the snakes from the Emerald Isle, we drove to Westport where we joined the locals in their daily sea dips at high tide.
    We left Westport following the WAW squiggles that signify our onward route. We stay at Old Head and wake to a day of stunning weather. We slowly wake with a stroll and coffees on the beach looking over the mountain we had climbed in the rain.
    Leaving Old Head southward along the coast we we spectacular mountains and stop at beautiful beaches. The wild swim in Westport obviously gave us the swimming bug because again we decide to brave the seas, only this time we go skinny-dipping on one of the most beautiful beaches we have yet been to.
    Refreshed we head back to the van and head inland to pass through the Doolough Valley cutting between the beautiful mountains of southern Mayo.
    We then visit Aasleagh waterfall on the banks of Killary Fjord. This incredible fjord is the border between Mayo and Galway, and so we finds ourselves passing into the Connemara region of Galway.
    With the short days drawing in we find ourselves in a perpetual sunset as we skit around the bottom of mountains and through deep valleys, arriving at Anchor beach in time to enjoy the moon rise.
    Realising it is still early we make the short drive to Clifden to do laundry but return to Anchor Beach to spend the night.
    The next day we wake and enjoy a leisurely morning, enjoying a coffee and fresh croissants on a pristine beach. We decide to backtrack in order to hike up Diamond Hill. Unfortunately, the weather decides to roll and and we do not get the views we were hoping for, but enjoy the hike none the less.
    After our hike we drive to Omey Island, this island can be reached at low tide by driving along the exposed sea bed. In a mad dash we drive headfirst into what Google maps tells us is the Atlantic Ocean and over onto Omey Island. After a short time on the island we realise that with Isabel's work schedule that if the tide comes in we would not be able to leave the island for three days, so we turn tail and make another dash across the sands.
    With Isabel working the next two days we decide it is time to find a spot where we can make camp for this time, so we head on to the Sky Road where we find Eyrephort beach. Here Isabel works and I edit the video, but in our free time we escape the van to jump into the Atlantic yet again.
    If you enjoyed this video please give us a like as it really helps our channel to grow.
    If you would like to see how we spend our Christmas in the van make sure to subscribe for next week's video.
    If you would like to share tips, thoughts or just generally have a chat, leave us a comment and we will try and get back to you.
    All the best, and we hope you enjoy
    Tom & Isabel

      Hello Father John,
      It is good to speak again, even if it is only through the TH-cam comments. You will have to thank St Anthony for us, straight after meeting you our GoPro batteries showed their heads. The weather has been glorious, summer days in winter! We love the WAW, beautiful landscapes, beautiful people and the rugged wild Atlantic by our side, what more could we ask for. Thank you for your help while we were in Westport and your support online. I have told Isabel about your wedding aisle offer and she said she is already planning our return visit to Westport, haha

I am also glad to hear St Anthony came to the rescue and that ye are continuing to enjoy the WAW and all it has to offer. I think we generally try to live up to the title of the land of the 'cead mile fáilte' 'the one hundred thousand welcomes' Safe journeys Tom and Isabel. 🖖

      I totally agree, the history of the whole area is so sad. I feel like I don't know it well enough to be teaching it in the videos to be honest, I did read all about it on the WAW signs and a bit on Google. Even Omey island housed multiple family's and a driving community. Reminds me a lot of the abandoned villages of the Highland clearances in Scotland

    Get vid, very nice footage and editing, and love the amazement you're getting from the West. I knew you'd enjoy the drive to Leenaun. Shame the sun didn't shine for you on your climb up the Reek, all the same you're getting lucky with the weather. Enjoy the county of the Tribes.

      Every corner we round we are blown away by the landscape. That road to Leenaun is really special. The weather has been great, even the rainy days, have sunny spells and we have been making the most of them. The misty mountains are a shame but we can't complain really, just happy we have had any sun at all.

Real pity bout the mist on the mountains you climbed (lmao, at least you could see the church on top of Croagh Patrick. The one time I climbed it, I couldn't see the church even though I was standing beside it.) as the views are indeed spectacularly beautiful. Your film and drone footage is so very well done.👏
