Directions to Hare Krishna Island
If you are using a GPS or Satellite Navigation System, these are the coordinates to the Ferry:
N 54° 11.482´ – W 007° 29.409´
Road Directions within Ireland: The island is 7 miles from Belturbet in north Co. Cavan and 7 miles from Lisnaskea in south Co. Fermanagh. The quay adjacent to the island is easy to reach form the cities, e.g. Belturbet is straight up the N3 from Dublin, and Lisnaskea is reached directly form the M1 and A4 from Belfast.
Both drives from these cities take less than 2 hours. Or, if coming by bus, please see the section ‘From outside Ireland’ below.
Coming from the directions NW, W, SW, S and SE (e.g. Donegal, Mayo or Dublin) go to Derrylin (which is just north of Belturbet).
Coming from the directions N, NE and E (e.g. Derry, Belfast or Monaghan) go to the Spar shop in Lisnaskea.
Derrylin and Lisnaskea are linked by the B127 road, which traverses Lough Erne. If you are coming from the Derrylin direction slow down after 2 miles and watch out carefully for the sign and right turn.
If you are coming from the Lisnaskea direction then you will first go over one bridge, and then another, and the sign and turn-off is a left turn directly after the 2nd bridge. From this point from all directions simply follow the road signs to Inish Rath.
From outside of Ireland: Fly into Dublin: www.aerlingus.com or www.ryanair.com.
If you’re not hiring a car or getting a lift then here are the details:
Walk outside the main entrance of airport and there are buses every 15mins to the main coach station in the city (journey takes 25minutes, charge 5 euro). From the main coach station, called Busarus, take a bus to Belturbet. The timetable is at: www.buseireann.ie
In Belturbet get a local taxi. Phone the Republic of Ireland numbers (+353) 087-256-1243 or 087-262-2418. It’s best to book the taxi hours in advance and also tell Benny or Pat, the drivers, that you’ll be in Belturbet 20 minutes later than the scheduled time. This is to allow for traffic out of Dublin. Benny or Pat will take you the rest of the way. The charge is 10 euro per journey.
You can also come to us via Belfast. The details are not listed here for brevity, but please enquire if this is more suitable for you.
