If you are single, outdoorsy and looking for an alternative to Lisdoonvarna, the singles adventure weekend on Clare Island might be just the ticket for you. Happening on the last weekend in September, you could actually call it the antithesis to a match-making festival. Because even though it is for the unattached, there will be no cringe-inducing match-making involved. Just a gathering of like-minded people having the craic and making new friends (and possibly more).

For the first time since Granuaile’s day, a tall ship will moor overnight at Clare Island. Scheduled to arrive on July 23, the barquentine Thalassa is an imposing and seaworthy sailor, rigged according to old tradition but fitted with every modern safety convenience. It is embarking on an Irish tour, leaving Belfast on Sunday July 14 and finishing in Galway on Sunday, July 28.
