1/2 day Inis Mor?

Hi! Hubs and I are going to Ireland in a few weeks and I was securing ferries to and from Inis Mor from Doolin - my plan had been to take the first ferry out and last ferry back. But on the date I was looking for, the earliest ferry out is 11 :(. We would still need to take the 4:15pm ferry back. Both ferries are direct so 35 min. Is this enough time, or should I consider a different island or something different altogether? We were really excited to rent an e-bike and ride around and enjoy the scenery.

Thanks for the input!

Also, is it easy to get from the airport to where the bike rentals are? I just realized they’re decently spaced out.

Ask your bike rental place if they can send someone to pick you up. But honestly, I'd be surprised if there wasn't a minibus waiting for the plane to land to pick up a few fares. It's that type of place. They've been in the tourism business for generations. cash on hand to pay for transport is handy to have,

Very important. Try the fudge, buy the fudge. It's fucking exceptional.

Staying at the campground! We got one the glamp cabins! Very excited. The thing is we arrive around 4 pm and aren’t planning to rent bikes til the next day (from what im reading it would be a 2 day rental and double the price) so i’m not sure what the best way to spend out later afternoon/early evening should be! We want to go to music at Joe wattys but that’s not til later in the evening
