Offshore Island Exploration | Ireland's Wild Coast
Can you imagine a world without humans? Great Blasket Island, off the south west coast of Ireland, was once home to a thriving village. Now abandoned by humans, new wildlife has moved in to call the island home. Grey Seals, for example, now gather on Great Basket Island during the winter months.The island stands as a pristine example of species and wilderness regeneration in the face of a shifting population.
