The monastery on the island of Skellig Michael off the coast of Kerry, Southern Ireland is long abandoned and the islands are now an UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to nesting Puffins.
Some bright spark in the tourist centre of nearby Killarney saw a marketing opportunity in all this and when we were in Ireland last July we saw a display selling t-shirts re-naming it 'Skellig Wars'.

So Rey goes to find 'you know who', not on the planet 'Ahch-to', but off the coast of Ireland, Earth.
