Skellig Michael is expected to re-open this weekend after bad weather conditions delayed OPW works.
The Office of Public Works said that they have finalised pre-season and safety works and the visitor spot will re-open tomorrow.
They said: “Following recent spells of poor weather, conditions for the coming days appear promising and it is expected that visitors will be able to land on Skellig Michael from this weekend.”
The Star Wars film location will be open until September 30th which will be the last day visitors can attend before closing until the 2020 season.
They added: “All visitors are reminded however that a trip to Skellig Michael can be very challenging and they should view the safety film available to view on the OPW’s website.”
Skelllig Michael can be accessed by local boatmen and is open daily from tomorrow until September.
Nearly 17,000 people visited the island last year, a figure that continues to increase each year.
