A great tour of the Bay!
Our family of 4 had a great time on the Dingle Bay Cliffs tour. We only booked the day before but everything was run so smoothly. Our guide had great local info and we loved seeing cormorants diving by the incredible cliffs! Thanks for a great trip on the water!

Nice but too crowded
The tour was informative and nice. The boat was fully booked and therefore very cramped. 4 fewer passengers would have been fine; as it was, 2 people preferred to stand.

Best Hour of our Ireland Vacation
The Dingle Dolphin boat tour with Captain Martin and skipper/guide Nuada exceeded our expectations in every way. Nuada is such a warm, personable, and funny young man, and within minutes of meeting him, he had us feeling like old friends. His pride in Dingle, where he grew up, emanated from everything he shared with us. He taught us so much about the landscape, the town, and the history of Dingle—both past and present. Martin, the captain, was one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I won’t ever forget Nuada or Martin, or the wonderful hour we spent touring the beautiful waters of Dingle. And sorry Nuada, but I have to say, WE EVEN GOT TO SEE DOLPHINS (...and a mink whale in the distance!)
Operator response

We’ll definitely pass your lovely comments on to Martin and Nuada. It’s great to hear how much you enjoyed hearing about Dingle, its history and the place they both know so well. Thanks again for joining us and for making us part of your Ireland trip.
