Inis Meain, the middle island of the Aran Islands, with an area up to 900 hectares, is an island of great and rugged beauty, on which the traditional Aran life style prevails most noticeably.
Until recently it was possible to land on this island by curragh only, but now an air strip has been built which links it with the Galway mainland and the two other Aran Islands.
There is also a museum on the island with artifacts of fishing, farming and kitchen in traditional crafts; bust of Synge and original photographs; copies of Synge's works; photography by Bill Doyle.
