Four kilometres off the Mullet Peninsula, sitting out in some of the roughest water in Ireland. I made this photograph from the Irish Lights helicopter during a visit to the station, and from the air Eagle Island looks almost delicate. A small rocky platform, a white tower, foam churning around its base. Don't be fooled.
On the ground, there's a wall running alongside the walkway from the helipad up to the lighthouse compound. Flagstones laid along the top of it. Practically every one of them had been displaced or blown clean off. Not vandalism. Wind. Just wind. Stone after stone, lifted and scattered by storms over the years. In 1894, a wave smashed through the lantern room glass at roughly 67 metres above sea level. That's not a typo.
You can see the Stags of Broadhaven in the distance here, those dark rock pillars rising from the Atlantic. A rain squall was pushing in from the left, a rainbow cutting through it. The station was established in 1835, and the keepers endured conditions out here for over a century that are difficult to comprehend. Access is extremely limited, and I'm fortunate to have had the chance to visit at all!
