Hotels in Aran Islands, Ireland
The Aran Islands, three rugged islands off Ireland's Galway coast, have a cool, rainy climate where summer highs rarely hit 60 degrees F (15 degrees C) and winter storms lash the Atlantic cliffs. They're famous for ancient stone forts like Dun Aonghasa on Inishmore, a 3,000-year-old fortress sitting on 300-foot cliffs, and for traditional Irish culture including hand-knit Aran sweaters and live pub music sessions. In summer, you can cycle across Inishmore to explore the fort, then hike to a session of fiddle tunes at Joe Mac's pub, while winter brings cheaper ferries and misty walks past stone walls on quieter Inishmaan.
