It’ll aim to provide visitors with a richer, deeper understanding of the islands history, traditions and natural environments.
The project will also include a café, visitor orientation area and changing facilities – and hopes to become a cultural hub for both locals and tourists.
As well as the €3m for the Inis Mór project, a further €1m has been announced for Cléire Island in Cork.
Miriam Kennedy, Head of the Wild Atlantic Way at Fáilte Ireland, says these investments will bring in visitors from around the world.
