Howth Coastal Boat Tour (Ireland's Eye Ferries 50 mins trip)

From€25
1 hour
Dublin, Ireland

Full description

Join us in the most beautiful Dublin coastal village of Howth. Onboard our small boats we get up close to Ireland's Eye Island, caves and marine life in the world famous UNESCO Dublin Bay Biosphere. See the majestic Howth cliffs and harbour on our rustic boat trip, hearing about the famous history and insider tales of this incredible peninsula. Our small and intimate group tours leave the Harbour behind on a voyage of discovery spotting the seasonal sea life along the way, puffins, seals, gannets and guillemots to name a few. When you return to the harbour there are several seafood restaurants along the pier to enjoy, each one better than the other.

Amazing boat ride

It was the best experience we have ever had and looking forward to take longer boat rides every summer. My children cannot stop talking about it and have already started to plan the next one. Our skipper was an amazing young woman, I forgot her name, she made sure we are comfortable always.

Overall fine, nothing spectacular

A nice 50 min boat ride. Our guide pointed out a few things but mostly just drove the boat. Would have loved him to talk more, teach about the animals, rock formations etc. it was lovely, but would not go out of my way to do it.

Beautiful

The tour was 50 min and they took us around the coast and it was beautiful. If you're in the area I highly recommend! Take a jacket incase too

Great experience

The trip with Ireland's Eye Ferries was excellent. The boat ride was enjoyable, the views of the coastline and Ireland's Eye were beautiful. Everything was well organized, and the guide was very friendly.
