Unique ambience of Dursey Island under threat

In our country we still have places that bear no evidence of disturbance by man, that are in their pristine state and rich with all the elements that feed the spirit and deliver us into the world beyond the skin of the time and circumstances we live in.

Dursey Island, isolated in the sea at the tip of the Beara Peninsula in west Cork, is one of those places. The sparse evidence of human presence is historic, generic and part of the view.
