Highlights
The ferry to Ireland’s Eye is a picturesque and tranquil journey across the waters of the Irish Sea. Passengers can enjoy stunning views of the rugged coastline and the iconic Howth Head cliffs as they make their way to the small, uninhabited island. Weather permitting, the ferry will land at the island where passengers can disembark and explore the rugged beauty of Ireland’s Eye. Visitors can also take a stroll around the island, taking in the stunning views of the mainland. The island’s ancient Martello tower, which dates back to the early 19th century, is a popular landmark. The island offers panoramic views of the surrounding area, and the opportunity for a gorgeous sea swim in the clear waters on the west-facing beach.

About Dublin
Dublin is Ireland's friendly, literary capital on the River Liffey, a city of Georgian squares, historic pubs, live music and a gift for storytelling.
Trinity College holds the illuminated Book of Kells and the soaring Long Room library, while Dublin Castle, Christ Church Cathedral and St Patrick's Cathedral trace the city's medieval and colonial past. Georgian squares such as Merrion Square, with their brightly painted doors, and the green expanse of St Stephen's Green provide elegant calm.
