点评:A visit to Rathlin was on my bucket list for a long time but overall a bit underwhelming for me!
The positives:
The boat trip out is enjoyable with nice views of the Island and Scotland as well as the Antrim coast.
Boat lands in a nice little village.
Island is quiet - road is not too busy so good for walking or cycling.
Negatives:
Bus to bird sanctuary was full and the service is not that good.
No roads off the main road down to little coves / beaches etc. and all the land seems to be private so you tend to be restricted to a single road as you go across the Island.
Island lacks a bit of atmosphere - it was quiet and subdued in the village.
No doubt a great destination for bird watching - but lacks things to do if you're not going over spend time watching birds.
I've been to many of the Islands off the coast of Ireland and have returned to most - even though I am glad I went out I don't think that I will return to Rathlin.
翻译:很久以来,拉斯林之行一直是我的愿望清单,但总体来说,它让我有点失望!
优点:
乘船出海很愉快,可以欣赏到岛屿、苏格兰以及安特里姆海岸的美景。
船停靠在一个漂亮的小村庄。
岛屿很安静——道路不太繁忙,适合步行或骑自行车。
缺点:
前往鸟类保护区的巴士经常客满,而且服务也不太好。
从主路到小海湾/海滩等没有其他道路,而且所有土地似乎都是私人的,所以你穿过岛屿时往往只能走一条路。
岛屿缺乏一些氛围——村庄里安静而压抑。
毫无疑问,这里是观鸟的好去处——但如果你不打算花时间观鸟,岛上就没什么可玩的了。
我去过爱尔兰海岸附近的许多岛屿,并且大部分都回去过——尽管我很高兴我出去了,但我认为我不会再回到拉斯林了。
