Getting to the Ferry Port or Airport

By Car – driving west from Galway City, Rossaveal Ferry Port and Connemara Airport in Inverin are both signposted off the main coast road R336. Guests should leave Galway City 2 hours before the departure time of the ferry or plane to allow extra time for parking and traffic delays as the R336 is a narrow regional road.

By Bus – contact Aran Island Ferries or Aer Arann Islands who operate shuttle buses from Galway City.

Getting to Ireland and Galway

Dublin Airport is the most convenient to fly into, as it has the largest choice of inbound flights and it also has the best onward ground connections. If your time in Ireland is short, direct buses to Galway City are available from Dublin airport with www.gobus.ie or a private chauffeur can be arranged.

If your time is longer and you plan to visit other areas besides Inis Meáin and Galway/Dublin City Centre then hiring a car at the airport is a good option. It is a 2.5 hour motorway drive from Dublin City or Dublin Airport to Galway City.
