Seals were cute. Fun and factual.

Great way to view Dublin through a different perspective. Amazing fun and we saw plenty of seals! Our guide Phil was great too, had lots of facts about the bay and was very happy to help. Cannot recommend anymore. 5 stars!!!!!

The best way to spend some time in Dalkey <3

This was an amazing experience! It was my first time visiting Ireland, and both tour guides made sure it was a day to remember. I've never had the chance to see seals that close, and I was able to take a great video of a baby seal pup coming up to my kayak :) Altogether it was a great time, I highly recommend - 5/5 stars

A great day out. Highly recommend

A great day. You get to kayak along the coast which cool to see from this perspective. Philip who ran the tour was very good. He has lots of interesting information about the history of the area and the animals in the bay. We got really close to plenty of seals as well which was a highlight.

Perfect Saturday morning in Dalkey

Great experience and we felt we were being looked after and kept safe all the time. It helped that the weather was perfect
