ROUGH CROSSING TO A REMOTE ISLAND (The Wild Atlantic Way || West Cork)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Despite further storms hitting Ireland we take a wild boat trip over to a magical island in West Cork.
We are Tom and Iz - a couple from Cornwall who decided to hit the road and embrace a new way of life, living and exploring in our tiny home on wheels, La Bamba. We invite you along with us on our adventures in our weekly vlogs. We love to embrace adventure and soak up nature every day! We're currently traveling around Ireland in our transit van along the Wild Atlantic Way. Ireland has really stolen our hearts; come along with us on this week's episode as we continue to explore wild West Cork. If you've missed our travels so far - check out our previous episodes, we upload weekly on a Sunday at 5pm :)
This week we wake up to a very stormy Bantry during the tail end of storm Eunice. We head to Skibereen to meet our friends Kate and Jake who travelled out to spend the week exploring with us. We head to where we are staying for the next few nights and we end up having a powercut on our first night, so we spend the night by the fire chatting.
Our first day of exploring takes us to Loch Hyne, a beautiful salt water lake, where we take on the Knockomagh Wood Nature Trail, and we enjoy the calm after the storm. We introduce you all to Kate and Jake and Jake treats us to some interesting facts about jakes favourite bird, the gannet! We continue our stroll around the lough and are just blown away by it's beauty! After a quick coffee break at our bnb we head off again to Toe Head. We indulge in a hot tub dip that evening and a warm cooked meal by Jake and Kate!
The next day we head out to Baltimore where we are due to catch a ferry to Cape Clear. Isabel and Kate are nervous when the captain tells us it is going to be extremely uncomfortable and rough! But we are only in Baltimore once and we wanted to go and see Cape Clear! We head right out into the choppy waters. It was a very rough crossing but quite exciting too! We all get completely soaked but the sun comes out on Cape Clear and we venture out to do a big looped walk around the island. We spot Fastnet rock, where a lighthouse lies that was built from Cornish granite slabs! It is the most southerly point of Ireland and lies 6.5km southwest of Cape Clear island.
We find little piglets, horses and ducks on the island and just soak up Cape Clear's calming nature. We meet someone who lives on the island and he tells us all about the annual storytelling festival on the island, we are determined to return for it someday! After a cider at the local shop, we take the return journey back to mainland and our crossing that afternoon was a lot calmer!
The next day ,we enjoy our last hot tub session before moving on to our next bnb for the rest of the week. On our way to our next place to stay we drive up to the summit of Mount Gabriel, and to our surprise La Bamba manages to drive all the way to the top! Now that saves the ol' mountain legs! We admire the views and feel exhilarated by the strong winds!
We arrive at our next house for the last bit of our week with Kate and Jake and we can't believe the drive to get there - right along the sea's edge! We discover a wood fired sauna and Jake treats us to a little tune on the guitar, then that evening Tom proceeds to thrash us all at Catan!
We wake to snow the next day and head to Mizen head, where unfortunately the visitor centre is closed but we can still take in the breath taking views of the raging sea below the cliffs! Unfortunately Three Castle Head is closed at the moment too for environmental reasons due to erosion due to high numbers of visitors. We were recommended to visit by lots of you lovely viewers so we must return when it's open another time! Our next stop is Barley cove where the floating walkway to get across the water is closed but we still get to appreciate a walk across the sand, despite the bitter icy weather! We feel we have earnt a cold pint in O'Sullivans pub in Crookhaven. That evening we enjoy the perks of having an oven and Isabel makes a hearty oven baked meal for us all.
Our final day with Kate and Jake has the best weather of the week so we head to Sheep's Head Peninsula to set out on the Glanlough Loop, a 15.4 km walk taking in the views of the Beara Peninsula from afar. Poor Kate ends up thigh deep in a big bog but we trek on and have a much awaited picnic. To our delight the pub at the carpark where we finish is open so we soothe our aching legs with a refreshing cider. We try out the bnb's wood fired sauna and natural cold water pool on our final night together, and sadly have to say goodbye the following day to Kate and Jake. We move back into the van and get back into the swing of living in a small space.

Hello Joy! We sure did and we’re still treated with those Irish blue skies. Thank you 😊
Was great to see Cape Clear again, spent lots of summers down there and you really explored it properly.
I also noticed a Cornish lilt in your accents when your friends were there.
Thanks to both of you, enjoying the videos.
Hi Matthew, thats really cool that you've spent summers at Cape Clear. we def wanna go back! Ha yes thats funny isnt it I can hear more of a Cornish twang in our voices too!
Having a great time irrespective of the weather. Stay safe and great your lifelong friends came along.

You're doing a better job of promoting Ireland than Bord Failte could ever do. Thank you for that.
We visited Clear island with beautiful weather eight years ago. Great experience. Mizen head was great but very foggy when there. Your video’s bring back great memories.
Great video glad ye all enjoyed the beautiful scenery in Cork.great friends you have too.loving life.

Glad to see ye are enjoying Cork
Great vlog really enjoyed it was lucky enough to spend a few days in that area last year didn't do or see a fraction of what you did ,but in my defense I'm older and lazier 😀so keep up the good work 👍
Hey thank you for watching! aw that's lovely that you visited the area too - I'm all for traveling slow and exploring fewer places more thoroughly so you do you and im sure you had a fab time!!
Stunning scenery 😁 but Cornwall isn't bad either. It's been a while I visited both places, which are so beautiful. Enjoyed this weeks vlog, see you soon 👋
That’s great to hear Anita thank you so much for watching! Ah yes both are gorgeous places on earth! 😍hope you have a good week and see you soon 💚
Great video guys! Shame the weather in Bantry wasn't good! On Fridays it's market day and the town is usually bustling with artisan food producers, Locally roasted coffee etc... Brilliant for a walk around the square on a fine day to see all the different stalls! Really enjoyed seeing Cape Clear as I've never been but will someday soon hopefully! I hope you're both enjoying what West Cork has to offer! All the best, Adrian
Hey there Adrian, aw yeah we missed the market there due to the storms but it sounds like my kinda thing , what a shame! I did have a good nose around Bantry charity shops though, lovely town ! Thank you for watching!
ahh that was amazing
Hey Declan yay thanks so much!!!
You guys should visit Kinsale,amazing town south of Cork city
Hey Michael - thank you for the reccie :)
Aww I had a big smile all the way through this, happy to see you enjoying beautiful West Cork, home sweet home :)
That’s so lovely to hear Lucy yay!! You made us smile! Thank you! 😊😊
Another ace video ❤
Thank you soo much!!
Excellent video guys..I love the boat trip to Cape Clear..I usually get it from Schull. Fab to have your friends to visit, and I'm glad you liked Budds 😊. Great views from Mt . Gabriel...you can see why West Cork is addictive!! Great stuff 👏 Cheers, Steve
Hello Stephen, thank you so much for your kind words!! We did like budds they were soo friendly in there and we bought some budds chilli sauce that went down a treat! Yes west cork is a real stunner!! 😍
A big THANK YOU for the preview of Cape Clear Island. Now I want to see it more than ever. You gave me just enough to whet my apatite. I wanted to see more, but that will have to wait until around June 1st. I will be going over to Cape clear from Schull where I have a Airbnb booked, thanks for the preview of there as well. I can't say how much I like your videos enough, they hold my attention from beginning to end. May the road rise up to meet you... safe travels.
Heya we love this comme nt thank you!! such a compliment to say we get your attention from beginning to end - so pleased ! And thats brilliant that you're going to cape clear. I hope you enjoy. Looked like Schull would be a great place to stay - lots of lovely little cafes and pubs :) Have the best time on Cape Clear and if you can try to visit the goat farm - we missed it and apparently its a great experience!
@@LostInTransit The goat farm sounds great. I will look for it. I used to raise goats years ago. I even helped deliver 7 kids one morning.
🐐 🐐 🐐 🐐 🐐 🐐 🐐
What I really wish is that I were leaving today instead of 70 days from now. It would be awesome to meet you two in Kinsale and talk into the wee hours of the morning. 🍻 Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!!!
Safe travels!
Great video guys, an escape from the mundane madness ,keep er lit😄.
Not long until you hit the copper coast, the vee lake and lismore are definitely worth a diversion. And sure if you come that far pop over to cahir I will show you around 👍
Haha love the abbreviation lit for us 🔥 hehe! Thank you for the recommendations Bren and for the super kind offer!! ✨
Thanks guys loved it as usual x
Thanks Stephen thats fab to hear - have a great week x
Great vlog guys as always . Mizzly now there’s word Tom. As a Devonian less than drizzle but more than misty rain! Good to see 4 Cornish friendships together, with no inbreeding 😉 from Bodmin😂😂. Normal for Cornwall as we say ere in Devon.
No inbreeding! Now thats presumptuous, haha. Normal for Cornwall, VERY normal for Bodmin 😂
Thanks for watching Paul, great to have you with us (despite your unfortunate geographic situation)
Lovely video, thanks for sharing.
thank YOU for watching and leaving us a kind comment!! have a great week!!
That looked fun.
The amount of walking u do you will have walked the whole way around the coast lol. The hill walking along the coast is something else. You both look to be have a great time here in Ireland
Hi good evening Marcus haha we do a lot of lazing in bed too! I just loved walking in ireland though I really want to come back and walk the whole of the Beara way and the Kerry way with a tent and a backpack! To really take in the sights!
As always, I love your vlogs!! The view from that house you were staying in looks amazing
Hey Ella aw thank you that’s super lovely to hear 💞 I know right how fancy is it ! Amazing view!
Keep safe folks
Thank you!
Loved the ferry to the island and all the scenery along the way. Ye both are doing great showing all the beautiful areas in Ireland where I am from
Hey Annie - glad Tom managed to film the crossing to Cape Clear - that was wild! I couldnt hold a camera i was too nervous! Thanks so much for watching and for sending us your kind words.
Great vid guys. The ferry crossing looked fun, glad you got there safely. Nope the weather starts to get a bit warmer for you soon. Looking forward to the next vlog. Keep safe guys.
Hello Geoff, glad you enjoyed this one! It was a fun crossing, it was quite nerve wracking but like being on a rollercoaster lol! It does feel much more springlike these days. we appreciate you watching each week - thank you!
Just great. Loved it. 👍😊
Thank you so much Don!
Adventures are always better with friends! Looks like you had a blast. That ferry crossing though 😳!!
Hey Cheska and Ben ! aww thanks for watching - we love your vids so much :)) Yeah that crossing was wild!! Glad Tom managed to capture some footage, I was just clinging on to Jakes arm scared haha.
Hello again. Another great vlog. You really do cover so much of the places you visit and the footage is quite incredible. That's what makes you different to other vanlifers' vlogs I've watched. There is far more content and depth to them.
I'm off to England later this week to the Cheltenham Horse Racing Festival for the final two days of it and given your current location I'm passing on a tip for the second race(2.10pm) on the Friday. The name of the horse is WEST CORK and I think he has a solide each way chance @8/1. He's a course and distance winner and the trainer/jockey combination of Dan and Harry Skelton have won this particular race twice in the last six years. As it's a Festival it'll be ultra competitive but if he finishes in the first five you get your money back. Until the next time, good luck!
Hey Iggy good evening and thank you for your supportive lovely words!! Ahh amazing good luck West Cork I can feel it in my bones he’s gonna do well ✨🤩such a great name and have a lovely time !!
Bodmin power couples 😂💪
(Very much enjoyed Jake's gannet facts)
Lovely stuff guys. Can't wait to see you drecklyish!! xxx
Hey Zenna Bee!! aww haha glad to hear you liked the bird facts!! we need Jakey in the vlogs more!! see you dreckly love you!!
Another great video thanks looking forward to seeing the next one hope that your friends enjoyed their trip to Cork
Hey Brian - aww so glad you are going to be watching next weeks too! thank you for stopping by to say hi - lovely to hear you enjoyed the vid
One of the best parts of the country, pity Three Castle Head and Mizen were closed, would have been great for all to see, one for a future visit.
Hey yes that was a pity but gives us even more reason to do this all over again some day 🤩
@@LostInTransit always plenty to see and do
Lovely Vid. FYI to cheers in Irish Slainte is pronounced Slawntchya. :)
Hey Lucy thank you for this!! Screenshot this so I remember for next time, ooops! Thank you for watching ✨✨😊
Loved this weeks update 👍 Geat that you guys show us more of our beautiful island. What an exciting boat trip to Cape Clear Island, I prefer calm seas 😀 Hope this week you get to enjoy St Patricks day celebrations ☘ Be safe see you on the next update 💚🇮🇪☘
Hello John , wahoo lovely to hear you enjoyed this weeks update!! Happy Paddys day I hope you have a great weekend. Thank you for your kind words!
Great to see you all haven fun in our beautiful country... Yet again a other great video from you guys.. Take care and much love from Northern Ireland.... Your friends are really nice and i hope they enjoy there time here

@@LostInTransit Thank you both. It's lovely that you take the time to reply to so many of your subscribers. I'm sure you are putting smiles on their faces, wherever they may be.
Great episode, looks like you had a brilliant week. Boat trip was wild!
Looked like so much fun! Kate and Jake seem like awesome people! 😁
Thanks James - they really are! so glad you enjoyed it !
Hi, thanks for the trip around Windy West Cork, I guess they don't have many cobwebs there !!. Loved your comment re: the cold pool after the sauna " it'll er, be refreshing" awesome attitude. Lovely to see you having a great time with your best friends, hope the van doesn't seem too cramped and lonely in the coming week. Have a beautiful week, take care and stay safe xx
Hey Cate, haha we didn't film the cold water pool because it was soo dark but i wish we had as our reactions would have been funny. it was a very cold pool that ran from the mountains! but yes refreshing haha. Thank you for the lovely kind words!! have a lovely week yourself
Beautiful scenery 💜
I would have been really sick on that boat ride 🤢. Glad you found it fun though 😁
haha well was quite surprised no one was sick but i think it was because we were outside with the fresh sea air and just trying to pretend our fear was excitement :P Thank you for watching!
there is another way to barley cove beach via the hotel - should have let you know that the floating bridge is taken down in Oct until Easter because of the storms - Loved seeing home again :) so happy to see you visit Arundles, that's where I was a waitress and my hubby was one of the chefs when we lived there - oh the memories :D
Oooh now you mention it we did spot some people over that way and wondered how they got there! Ah we’ll still a beautiful spot. That’s so cool you were a waitress and Arundles! Such a great pub!
Great video as always guy's. Living the dream and taking so many people with ye on yer journey. 👍👍👍
Hello martin - thank you so much we are just so happy that people want to come along on our journey with us!
I just watched every one of your videos today of your Irish trip. You showed Ireland in a great way and glad you both enjoyed it so much! Now on my list of favourite Vloggers 🙌🏽 Enjoy the rest of your time here and if you travel up the east coast towards County Down, get in Touch Id love to show you around 🤙 Enjoy Paddy’s day! ☘️
hey morning ! happy st Patrick’s day! that’s so lovely to hear you watched all our vids- thank you!! aww that’s so kind of you, we’re not heading that way any time soon but sure we will on another trip! have a great weekend! 🇮🇪☘️
Heartwarming video guys. Nothing like friends eh. Know the area very well, lovely to see familiar places. We're coming closer each video to where I live. Looking forward to seeing it through your eyes. Happy vanning.
Hello Greg , thank you what kind words ! Hope you're having a happy week :)
Great vlog folks,good to meet your friends,seem like a lovely couple,it's great to have friends who've stuck around eachother !
Hello :) thank you so much! they are such a lovely couple. yeah and really cool how long we've been friends for!
You guys are sounding some Cornish with your mates there!!😅👌 great video series, love the whole Irish experience☘️🇮🇪
you can always tell how far from home I am by the strength of my accent, haha. Glad you’re enjoying the videos
Excellent vid again guys, The crossing to the island looked like fun though the captain may not have been happy being called the boat driver!!!!. Oh and what's with the Murphy's surely it should have been Guinness.
Murphy's is brewed in Cork so there's a lot of it around;-)
Hey Lenny ha so sorry I actually had complete mind blank over the word to call a captain!! Oops!! It was a fun crossing and a bit nervy too! Murphys and Beamish are the stouts to be drinking in cork we hear !
Fair enough Tony my family is from Wicklow
Beautiful place. I once watched a cormorant catching a fish in the regent’s canal in bow east London. It was so nice to see nature in the city. I always associated cormorant birds with the ocean but there it was to see in east London. Happy travelling 👍
Heyy aw that's really cool that you saw that in the middle of London. That must have been so special!! thanks for sharing! I hope you're having a good week!
Lovely fun😊
Loads of my favourite west cork places :-)
Another great video guys, yr friends had a great week im sure.You are really living the life and enjoying every day of it.God bless u both every coming day.❤❤🙏🙏
Hello Leom thank you so much! We do feel very lucky to be able to explore Ireland in our van Thank you for watching!!
@@LostInTransit Happy St.Patricks Day, ❤ Park up and enjoy as many pints of guinness as you both can.Sure it will be mighty craic where ever yous are.❤🙏🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Great vids, i hope you guys get a chance to head up the east coast the mournes are worth checking out!
Heya Gareth, thank you for this! We won’t make it to the mourne mountains this trip but lots have recommended them and we just have to go back and explore them some day!! I love hiking here!!
@@LostInTransit awesome they are a big inspiration for Cs Lewis's narnia series, definitely a stand out area, although I'm a bit biased
I’ll keep an eye out for you in and around Rosscarbery if you come
Glad you’re enjoying beautiful west cork
Another great video from you guys, you really get up close and personal with our beautiful country!
Hello Michelle - thats lovely to hear you enjoyed this one. Thanks for coming back and watching!!
Another good video, lads 👏🏻
Thank you so much!!
Hi Iz Tom Kate Jake looks like you are all having fun nice crossing sea was a little rough but I like it like that more fun better then a mill pond ,do your friends follow you in there car or get in the back of your camper,sure looks windy 🌬 there but it’s lovely the beach looks stunning,it’s always sad when your friends have to leave they have a long drive home we’ll you all had a great time I enjoyed all the scenery and views till next time take care keep safe,john 🌬🌬👀🌹🌹👍😜💐💐🍀🍀👿👿❄️❄️☃️
Hello John! Thanks for coming back and watching our vids each week - we appreciate you! Like you said the crossing was actually quite fun - i was nervous but it was like going on a rollercoaster! Kate and Jake rented a car here so we sometimes got a lift with them or we went in convoy with the 2 vehicles! Take care and have a great week!
You have seen more of West Cork in a day or two than I have seen in my entire life and I am from Cork. 😂
Hey James haha really - I guess we are just lucky to have such brilliant tips from others about where to go! Thank you for watching !!
Wild West Cork, looks wonderful.
Hello Derrick aw that's just lovely to hear you enjoyed it. And so nice to introduce you to our lovely friends :)
That was brill. Great to see you having a good time with your friends. We visited Cape Clear Island as part of a whale watching trip out of Baltimore with Whale Watch West Cork and it was fab, albeit it was warmer and less choppy when we were there. Dunno if you spotted my comment on a previous vid, but if you visit beautiful Kinsale, make sure you try the vegan breakfast in the Lemon Leaf cafe. It is really good 👍
Hey Davey! Thank you!! Ahh I wish the whale watch west cork were running trips this time of year, would have loved to do something like that! Oh no we missed your recommendation, thank you for thinking of us !’ 💞
Bless you both, ye are really getting loads in, lovely ye had your very good friends over. Ye were in a good few of my haunts in the past week. Loughine is lovely to swim in,warmer than the sea i love the hill walk there. Much nicer day today,i hope ye had the great weather, wherever ye were. Gabriel is a great walk too, think the pink house you see from there is Jeremy Irons house. Nice pint of guinness ye had, a good head on it. Thanks for sharing, loved the B&Bs.
Hello Lorraine, thank you so much for stopping by again, always a joy to read your comments! Lovely that you saw a few of your haunts this week! So many amazing walks to do around here!
@@LostInTransit Happy Saint Patrick's day you two. Enjoy the sunshine.
i love gannets too
