Our Story

A Traditional Ritual, Rooted in the Atlantic

Tucked along Lighthouse Road on Inis Oírr, Aran Seaweed Baths and Spa offers a genuinely island experience — freshly harvested seaweed drawn straight from the surrounding Atlantic waters and prepared for its natural, mineral-rich benefits.

Beyond the baths, guests enjoy massage and facial treatments, a wood-fired sauna with sweeping views of the island, a hot tub, and a bracing cold plunge pool. It's a small, personal spa — cared for by a team, including Annette and Mabs, known for warm hospitality and skilled therapeutic treatments.

Popular with visitors year-round, spaces are limited, so booking ahead is strongly recommended — especially in peak season.
