Ferries

Ferries run between Clare Island and the mainland at Roonagh Pier near Louisburgh and Cloughmore Pier near Achill Sound. One ferry ticket (cost €35) covers both journeys for you and your bike but tickets are not transferable - you must travel with the same company on both ferry journeys. Ferries must be booked in advance. 

Clare Island-Roonagh-Clare Island ferries run regularly every day (about every 75 minutes)

Ferries between Achill and Clare Island run in the summer months only.

Full ferry time details are on the websites www.clareislandferry.com and www.omalleyferries.com
