Wet, Rough, and Wild
If you like kidney punch ride on a Boston Whaler on the ocean then this is for you. If not take a ship to see the Minke whales
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the sea conditions made your experience uncomfortable.
We appreciate your point that a larger vessel may be more suitable for guests who prefer a smoother ride. We hope that, despite the conditions, you were able to enjoy some of the incredible wildlife and scenery around the Blasket Islands.
Thank you again for your feedback.

Magic
Taking the boat out of Dingle Harbor was alone amazing; beautiful scenery and geological tales from our tour guide. The seals were playing near the beach on the largest Blasket. It was wild seeing the paths and homes mentioned in Peg Sayers’ book. On trip back, the team followed the birds to find a pod of minke whales!! A lifetime experience! (Even without the whales it was a wonderful journey and a new way to see the Dingle area.)

Dingle Boat Tours = THE BEST
Had the absolute best time on this adventure! Got to see seals, dolphins, and whales (plus lots of seabirds). The boat crew put in such effort to find wildlife and provided hilarious stories and cool facts the entire trip. The whole crew went above and beyond. Would absolutely recommend (and will likely do again another time)!

Sensational Views & Wildlife with a Friendly, Well-Informed Guide
My family & I took this tour in July 2026 & we couldn't have been more pleased with it. The crew was professional, friendly, & knowledgeable, the boat in excellent condition, & the sites beautiful. In addition to learning all about the area & the Blasket islands, we were also lucky enough to see plenty of dolphins, puffins, & even a minke whale! A very well-spent afternoon--highly recommend!
