Thought this was decent for an overnight trip, use code SUMMER at checkout - code ends Weds 28th June. Can either go on your own or buy various vouchers (even go as a group) - Awesome reviews
Holidaymakers can embark on an overnight sailing trip to the Aran Islands and relax thanks to the luxuries of a 37-feet yacht boasting three double cabins. En route, guests can admire the views from the deck or kick back in their own cosy berths. After lunch, the yacht will reach the Kilronan Harbour from which it is easy to explore Inishmore, the largest of the Galway Bay’s islands. Travellers will have a chance to embrace the island’s atmosphere and sample some local food and drink there. Breakfast will be served on board the following morning before heading back home.
The Itinerary:
Midday - assemble at Rossaveel Harbour: tea and coffee and safety briefing on board the yacht
1pm approx. - Departure from Rossaveel Harbour (about 36 kilometres from Galway)
2pm approx. - Light lunch en route; the sail to Aran (Inishmore) takes ~3 hours
4pm approx. - Arrival in Kilronan, Inishmore; exploring the island and time for an evening meal and a few drinks in one of the local restaurants and pubs; return to the yacht
11pm - Return to yacht to sleep
8am the following morning - Irish breakfast
9am - Set sail for Rossaveel
Midday approx. – Arrival back in Rossaveel

Did a trip to Inishmore a couple years ago, definitely worth the cost. Not sure about sleeping on the yacht though, things could get bumpy :wink:

Sounds like a great trip, sadly I turn green as soon as I get on a boat, so I'll pass.
