Remote but charming island, always windy. Don't get in the way of the ferry. Tory island is the mythical home of Balor of the Evil Eye, a diety/warrior/king of the Fomorians, who lost sway when they were defeated by the tuatha De Danaan, led by his grandson Lugh Lamh fada, longarmed Lou about 4000 years ago.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.
The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 33 minutes ago (Monday 19 May 05:20 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

Tory Island Pier and/or the surrounding seas is not well protected from strong winds and waves, and you should take caution in foul weather. Click to edit protection level.
Tory Island Pier is surrounded by high hills or mountains. When strong winds come from the mountainous side there is a risk of turbulent or katabatic winds (also called "fall winds"), which may be rather unpleasant. In such conditions, you should not rely on the wind protection score for the coming night. Click to edit.
