Fantastic experience - Had a great experience and time on the morning tour! Got to see 2 types of dolphins and Minke whale. I'd never seen any type of whale before so I was delighted. I like the fact that the boat was a bigger size than the other boat options from dingle like sea safari. It felt safer and we didn't have to wear any provided rain gear or life jackets (unless going to the rib for transfer). Really enjoyed the information and had great fun. We took sea-sickness tablets before which was a great move for when it was a bit more choppy near the great blanket island. Great value for money. Tip: Very warm clothes and sunscreen needed!

Extraordinary - Extraordinary! On August 11, 2025, we saw seals, dolphins and whales! The guide helped us get on and off the boat and made the effort to help us understand his explanations despite the language barrier.

A fun day seating Irish Sea life. - Great experience. The boarding was seamless. The three of us are seniors, I have a problem with a foot but the ramp was not difficult. Eco guide was excellent. Not overly done. The weather was definitely Irish, had some sprinkles, clouds and sunshine. The captain was well experienced. Saw minke whales, dolphin, and seals. Bird life a plenty. We would do it again.

You must have done it! - Very nice captain and guide. There was a lot of interesting information about nature and history. The view was beautiful despite fog and some light rain. Dolphins and whales didn't miss out, of course, a great must-have experience!

Boat tour Ventry Harbour - Lovely tour guy, who told us story, explained everything. We saw Blasket island, seals, Atlantic puffin, was sunny day. Friendly group with one man with his dog. We got a chance to go upstairs on the boat, 7 people in a one time. That’s was incredible. View, people, atmosphere. You’ll love it. The tour start from Ventry Harbour.
