Two novice kayakers, Tessa Fleming and Irial 脫 Ceallaigh, nervously prepare to take on one of Ireland鈥檚 most daunting and precarious sea crossings.

T谩 谩r mbeirt tosaitheoir铆 cadhc谩la Tessa Fleming agus Irial 脫 Ceallaigh ag r茅iteach go neirbh铆seach le tabhairt faoi cheann de na turais farraige is sc谩faire agus is cont煤irt铆 in 脡irinn. T谩 cuma 茅asca ar an phas谩iste gearr chuig na h-oile谩in at谩 i ndeas do ch贸sta Mhachaire Rabhartaigh, lena gcuid pluaiseanna 谩ille r煤nda, i gcompar谩id leis na roll贸ga toinne gan staonadh ar an bhealach amach go Toraigh.

Faigheann 谩r l谩ithreoir铆 amach faoi chult煤r Gaelach an oile谩in agus i ndiaidh o铆che chodlata briste agus trasnaithe eile treascraigh, t谩 faoiseamh m贸r orthu an t铆r m贸r a bhaint amach an athuair. Leanann siad leis an turas le cuairt ghasta ar Chaisle谩n na dTuath a sheasann go maorga ar bhruach Chuan na gCaorach agus le stopadh thar o铆che ag teach solais 铆oc贸nach Chionn Fh谩nada.

Two novice kayakers Tessa Fleming and Irial 脫 Ceallaigh nervously prepare to kayak one of Ireland鈥檚 most daunting and precarious sea crossings. A short passage to the inner islands off the coast of Machaire Rabhartaigh, with their stunning sheltered caves, looks easy compared to the unrelenting, rolling waves to Tory island.

The presenters find out about the Gaelic culture of the island and, following a disrupted sleep and another treacherous Atlantic crossing, they are relieved to arrive back on the mainland. The onward journey continues with a quick visit to the stunning Doe Castle in Sheephaven Bay and an overnight stopover at the iconic lighthouse at Fanad.
