We met up with a few friends who had travelled from Doolin before starting our one day tour of the island.<\/p>\n<p>Local islander and historian Caithleen Ni Chonghaile took us on an informal two hour walking tour of the island in which she discussed its heritage, people, and how central the Irish language remains to the lives of the islanders.<\/p>\n<p>We visited a disused currach, at a site just outside the village with spectacular views of Inis Me\u00e1in and Conamara, where Catithleen spoke about the importance of the traditional rowing craft to the economy and life of the island.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the islanders used to row priests between the three Aran Islanders in all sorts of weather at a time when there were far fewer ferries.<\/p>\n<p>She brought us to Cill Ghobnait, a tenth century church, which is located to the west of the island\u2019s pier. Named after St. Gobnait, the defender of Ballyvourney (another Gaeltacht part of Ireland in County Cork. St Gobnait came to Inis Oirr from County Clare to flee from enemies, before moving to Ballyvourney, and Caithleen spoke of how friendships have been rekindled between the Cork and Inis Oirr Gaaeltachts in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>St Gobnait is also the patron saint of bees and a currach in the island\u2019s church honours her connection to the smallest of the Aran Islands.<\/p>\n<p>Caithleen then brought us on a walking tour across the island, climbing the hill to O\u2019Brien\u2019s Castle, built in the early 15<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0 century, which has panoramic views across the island, Galway Bay, Conamara, and Co. Clare.<\/p>\n<p>She spoke of how the O\u2019Brien clan fought with the O Flahtheartaighs of Conamara, who seized the castle in 1582. It was captured by Oliver Cromwell\u2019s army in 1652, during the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland, and the building went into decline.<\/p>\n<p>Our tour with Caithleen finished at Teampall Caomh\u00e1n, otherwise known as St. Caomh\u00e1n\u2019s church, which dates from the 10th century.<\/p>\n<p>Popularly known as the \u2018Sunken Church\u2019, the ruins are spectacular. The building was completely covered in sand until it was excavated by the islanders, who look after it until this day.<\/p>\n<p>Caithleen told us that St. Caomh\u00e1n was brother to St. Kevin of Glendalough, and is the patron saint of Inis O\u00edrr whose feast day is June 14th. A Mass is held at the church on that date every year.<\/p>\n<p>After leaving Caithleen at the cemetery, we met up with Davis Sandetefur, the Irish Language Officer for the island for the past two years.<\/p>\n<p>Davis grew up in Kentucky and is a fluent Irish speaker. He told us about his love for the island, the importance of keeping Irish alive in communities such as Inis Oirr, and how he loves the winter months more than the busy tourist season.<\/p>\n<p>He was delighted to take questions from the people from Carnmore, Claregalway, and Annaghdown who spent the day on the island \u2013 some of them had never been to Inis Oirr before but they will surely be back again!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2683 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/teampallcaomhan-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2685 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/currachgrupa-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2687 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/caithleenstone-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2689 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/capall-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2691 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-22-at-15.25.30-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2693 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gaeltachtaneachreidh.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/grupaagdeireadh-600x540.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/540;\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sun shone brightly on Saturday as a group of Irish language enthusiasts from Gaeltacht an Eachr\u00e9idh enjoyed a fabulous one day trip to the beautiful island of Inis Oirr.
