Description
Innischoragh — meaning “Island of a Favourable Wind” — lives up to its name in every way. Nestled in the heart of Clew Bay, County Mayo, this rare and poetic landform offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a fully off-grid home within one of Ireland’s most breathtaking and environmentally protected coastal regions.
Just 10 minutes by boat from Roy Pier, Newport beside the historic 16th-century Gráinne Uaile Castle, the island boasts panoramic views across Clew Bay and toward the sacred slopes of Croagh Patrick and in full view of the world-renowned Wild Atlantic Way. The nearby town town, Newport, is known as the town of the two Graces: Grace O’Malley (Gráinne Uaile) and Princess Grace. With its backdrop of rolling Atlantic waters, shifting skies, and the storied Mayo coastline, the landscape is as majestic as it is meditative.
