Brasil, also known as Hy-Brasil (from the Irish Gaelic: Uí Bhreasail) among several other variants, is a phantom island said to lie in the Atlantic Ocean west of Ireland. Irish myths described it as cloaked in mist except for one day every seven years, when it becomes visible but still cannot be reached.
