5Don't skip this!
A wild adventure that is totally worth it! This was one of the best parts of our trip to Ireland. Amazing views. Company was nice, provided all needed equipment, and made sure we had a great time.
5Amazing Boat Experience
Loved this trip. Was amazing, little cold but we got given spray jackets and pants, our guide was wonderful giving us info at each stop and tried it best to get us to see some Dolphins. Which we did get to see a whole bunch at the end. We saw Puffins, Seals, other birds as well as two different types of Dolphins. Was incredible and would recommend to anyone who is heading on a day trip to Dingle. Was a small group of people and definitely worth your money. Make sure you bring layers tho!!!
5A fantastic boat trip.
A great rib boat experience. Had wonderful weather which helped. Seeing dolphins and minky whales was an added extra. Wet weather gear was supplied and even in this very sunny day was needed. Equipment was in good condition. Good value for an almost 3 hr boat trip. Atmosphere was fun and friendly. Staff very helpful, knowledgeable and welcoming, in office and on boat. Loved learning about the Blaskets Island and their history. Suitable for families with older children, couples and solos. Our boat was fully booked, so book ahead if interested. Overall a fantastic experience. Fingers crossed you will also see dolphins jumping.
5Must do
My favorite part of our trip was this boat tour. 10/10 recommend. We saw puffins, dolphins, seals, and even a minke whale! Our captain was great and informative. Highly recommend this company.
5Great boat ride
High winds cause the the tour to be change route but guide found plenty for us to look at including a rare whale sighting.
5Perfect summer day on the sea
Wonderful tour around Blasket Islands on a perfect sunny day. Had the chance to see sea lions, dolphins and a good variety of birds. The views are stunning and our guide was great.

About Dingle
Dingle is a brightly painted harbour town on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, with music pubs, Irish-speaking villages and wild Atlantic scenery.
Dingle, An Daingean in Irish, is a small fishing harbour on the Dingle Peninsula in the south-west of Ireland, in a district where Irish is still spoken in daily life. Its streets of painted shopfronts run up from the harbour, and in the evenings the pubs fill with traditional music sessions. Fishing boats still unload at the pier, and seafood is the town's trade.
