    ...is it possible to land on either?

    And if possible, does any person head out there? Doeas anyone have animals on either, or is there any fish farm that might bring boats in and out?

    I know Puffin Island is owned by Birdwatching Ireland, and there are restrictions on staying there overnight.

    you can land on the north of scarriff but it is a very tricky landing. There is basically two eyelets drilled into a rockface that you can tie onto.
    Try http://www.skelligboats.com/ they do diving trips to scariff quite often.

    Conor,

    Mountainviews might be doing a trip out to Puffin Island later in the year. Wicklore has been looking into it. If you contact him through the member's message service he can fill you in on the details.

    Just started heading out again in the last couple of weeks! Was in Dublin last weekend for the WAI/MV talks. Bagged a couple of county tops and did a walk in Wicklow with Simon and Jackill. Training for the next Scavvy!

    Was out on Reeks a lot recently. Thinking of doing Knockmoyle to Coomcallee and on to Castlecove or Caherdaniel tomorrow. If you fancy a trek in South Kerry any time, let me know.
