Special note

Tearaght Island is private property owned by the Commissioners of Irish Lights (CIL). Access to the island is strictly forbidden unless approval has been granted by the CIL in advance. The only permitted means of access is by CIL helicopter. The island presents a serious mountaineering challenge which is far beyond the abilities of most hillwalkers. For these reasons, High Point Ireland does not encourage Highpointeers to attempt a landing on Tearaght Island.
