Two deaths in recent years.
Do we close it or make it safe?
The ferrymen charge a fee so why don’t those who are entrusted with managing this historic site?

Think Everest…
I’m guessing you have more chance of dying in a car crash…
Or dying in brawl outside a pub.
Next there will be walking tests before your allowed to walk…
There is no such thing as safe… only safer…Do we close all the roads in Dublin because cyclists or pedestrians got killed?

Obviously you wouldn’t put balustrading around the edge of the Cliffs of Moher or the Grand Canyon and I take the point:
“There is no such thing as safe… only safer…”
However, comparing the safety of travelling by machine with that of traversing the steps on the Skelligg Rock is somewhat disingenuous.
The Skelligg Rock is one of only two Irish sites which are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The following comment comes from the Unesco website“The protection, management, authenticity and integrity of properties are also important considerations”
