Overview

This tour combines a 4 hr. dolphin and whale watching tour with a 3 hr. stop-over on the Great Blasket island. Your day is divided between a 1 hr. sea journey; 3 hrs. on Great Blasket Island and then 3 hrs. eco marine tour around some of the outer islands, dolphin, bird and whale watching (hopefully). Sightings can never be guaranteed (!) but if the weather is fine and the sea is relatively calm, we guarantee that you will enjoy the wonderful landscapes, seascapes and varied marine wildlife around the Blasket islands archipelago and Dingle Bay.

Awesome day at sea

Published on May, 2025

We booked this tour hoping to see wildlife but got so much more. Vincent was an excellent captain and our eco guide John was extremely knowledgable. Their respect for the sea and her inhabitants was obvious. We were lucky to have a beautiful day with sightings of several species including, albeit briefly, a minke whale. The hike on Blasket Island was well worth the time as the views were spectacular but the highlight of the trip for us were the rock formations and sea caves. Truly magnificent.

Amazing day--Start to Finish

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a wonderful 18 days in Ireland--such a beautiful country--but the highlight of the trip was this tour. We were blessed with gorgeous weather--but we were scheduled for a day which was supposed to have bad weather--they contacted us and requested to change for a better experience--we could also cancel at no charge if that didn't work. Amazing customer consideration. Our guide was great--so much information. Blasket Island was great-we hiked around the hill and picnicked up top. Coffee at the cafe and a NPS history session. Then out into the Atlantic where we saw three types of whales--the Humpback, The Minke and The Fin Whale--also two types of Dolphins, Tuna leaping to catch fish and lots of birds. An amazing day start to finish

Well worth the time and fare

Published on Oct, 2024

After the tour was canceled on Sunday due to high winds and terrible rain, we booked the next day. Because of a tidal serge, we could not get to the Blasket Islands to wander around. The tour guide asked if we would take the 4 hour tour of whale/dolphin watching. We took the afternoon cruise to see seals, common and bottlenose dolphins along with several types of sea birds. The scenery was gorgeous especially around Blasket Island. The guide, John, was knowledgeable and friendly. The captain, Vincent, was capable and worked hard to find the dolphin pods. The trip was well worth the time and fare.

A highly recomandable trip

Published on Aug, 2024

We were on an excellent trip to Great Blasket Island 23. of July. The Island itself was exciting and really worth a vist. We saw 3 Coughs close to the seal-colony made the visit even better. On the the following whale-safari, we saw 2-3 Mink Whales and 2 flocks of Common Dolphins very close to the boat! And a lot of birds! thausands of Manx Shearwater - (and one Balearic!) all over the sea, Puffins close, Fulmars and other good birds. The guide (Britta) was very informing, and knew all abourt the birds at sea (and cateaceans, off course). A highly recomandable trip. Just do it!

A first class experience

Published on Jul, 2024

The weather forecast did not look favourable, but what a glorious day was spent on Blasket Island. The island is steeped in history, but also so much wildlife. The beach is a haven for grey seals. After leaving the Blasket Island, Vincent once again demonstrated his navigational skills by showing us stunning scenery and magical wildlife. I will be back.
