For anyone interested what life was really like on the Blasket island back in the day i would recommend a book called "twenty years a growing ". An unforgettable read imo.
Ireland and the Irish people hold a beauty that can be found in any other country in the world, If you don't believe me then ask Phil Lynott the greatest rocking point of all time
The village is on the east of the island, this would have been the most sheltered part. I'd imagine the rest of the island is way too exposed, and it's very steep and hilly. Going there for the first time this weekend. Beyond excited about this, been waiting a long time.

James..am of ScotsEnglishIrish descent here in California.. loved this..but what's a rocking point and who's Phil Lynott?
@katwalkable frontman of the classic Thin Lizzy should check them out great music, great artists and great guy :)
"Going back fifty years, who could tell what life would hold?" You could say that about fifty *days* now.
I never visited the island just wondering was there any place sheltered in order they would b protected from the storms I note no trees

Its strange how his posh accent even sounds posh in irish despite pronouncing the words perfectly.
Hopefully they can be inhabited again by Irish people in the not too distant future
