Keadue, Rosses, Arlands, Kincasslagh, Donegal, Ireland
This stunning stretch of coastline overlooking Inishinny Island runs across Cloughglass, Arlands & Keadue. I personally believe it’s a unique coast due to the lush green grass growing across the volcanic granite rocky islands. Carved in between them over eons are these countless sandy beaches & small hidden coves. A dream come true for any explorers ?️♂️
One of the main reasons I adore this stretch of coast & sought out this image was to show you these little rocky islands with homes built on them! If you look closely you can see that the roads from the mainland leading to them suddenly run straight into the sea! Look on the islands & you can see the road re-emerge leading to the homes. This initially had me puzzled on how folk accessed their homes? Well the answer is very strange especially to those living in a city lifestyle. To access or leave the homes you simply need to carry a tide chart & watch. Twice daily the tide recedes & vehicles are able to drive straight across the sea floor onto the islands! During high tide the residents use small dinghy boats to cross over. I love how these locals are so perfectly tuned with their environment ?♀️
