Killary Harbour

 

We stayed in a little cottage near Leenaun towards the end of Killary Harbour, which they say is Ireland's only fjord.. Naturally we had to do a socially-distanced boat trip to the mouth of the fjord and back. Great fun and neither Theo nor I got sea-sick. The boat was called The Connemara Lady.

Killary Harbour is really quite spectacular with big green mountains on either side, including Mweelrea, the highest mountain in Connemara. The boundary between Galway and Mayo goes right down the middle of the fjord, with Galway on the south side and Mayo on the north.
