A wonderful experience for all ages! - I can thoroughly recommend The Blasket Island Sea Life Rib Tour for a unique and spectacular view of Ireland's Dingle Coast.
We were a bit unlucky with the weather but that only made the Atlantic more beautiful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and let us take our time when we wanted to.
We took my 80 year old mother with us and she loved it. So, the tour is perfect for any age.

Once In A Lifetime - Breathtaking views of the blasket islands and the beautiful coastline! Dress warm waterproof. They give you waterproof pants and a jacket to put on top of your clothes. Size up for your jacket.The rib tour did feel like a kids roller coaster at times because of the weather but worth it. Very safe. They cancel if bad weather. Also wear a patch or take dramamine if you tend to get sea sick. We saw dolphins swimming alongside our boat and seals on the beach. Our captain explained the views and it was a once in a lifetime experience. Well worth the money

Great Seal & Dolphin Sighting - Immersive Experience - Phenomenal experience - we had some rough chop going out (maybe not for the super faint of heart), but the experience made it all worth it. We saw hundreds of seals at the Great Blasket colony, many different sea birds, and then came back in with the waves (easier journey) surrounded by dolphins. Incredible experience and 10/10 way to see the Blaskets and surrounding areas - I chose this instead of the Slea Head drive and was not disappointed. The captain was also incredibly knowledgeable about the area, its history of habitation, the animals, etc.
