Doolin Ferries makes the 30-minute trip from Doolin Pier to Inis Oirr (Inisheer), the smallest of the Aran Islands, from spring until early fall (weather permitting, EUR 30 return). There are at least three round-trip sailings a day, and up to eight in July and August, but inquire on the day you plan to embark, as schedules vary according to weather and demand. Sometimes more than one ferry company operates out of Doolin; your return ticket will be valid only with the company that took you out, so when boarding the outbound ferry, be sure to check the return schedule. Sightseeing cruise lines heading up and down the Cliffs of Moher coast also leave and return from Doolin Pier, 1½ km (1 mi) outside the village.
