It appears once every seven years. It cannot be reached.

From its earliest appearances on 14th-century European maps to the decoded binary transmission of a 1980 UFO incident that pointed to coordinates west of Ireland, Hy-Brasil has refused every attempt to confine it to the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on Irish mythology, medieval cartography, the great voyage tales of the immrama tradition, and the oral folklore of Ireland's western coast, this book explores the full world of the phantom island - its priest-king and his tower of forbidden knowledge, its supernatural cattle and healing gifts, its seven-year cycle of vanishing and return, and its place among the great lost-land traditions of Atlantic civilization: Avalon, Lyonesse, Atlantis, and the Fortunate Isles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSome places are too real to be found.
