5.00Very nice boat trip of 4 hours. We've seen dolphins and a minke whale. The guide clearly explained not only marine life but also the history of Ireland. Definitely worth it.
Just do it !!!

5.00This tour was just immense. We took the four hour wildlife tour We saw a minke whale , and about five separate dolphin pod encounters with both bottlenose and common dolphins and largest seal colony I’ve ever seen on the great Blasket Island. Loads of gannets and guillemots. We even spotted the odd puffin. Our skipper Martin was terrific and even as we were heading back after three hours he was still on lookout and made a diversion to meet more bottlenose dolphins. I’m sorry I didn’t catch the name of the tour guide but he was very informative and chatty and a delight to share the trip with. Don’t hesitate, just go !!!
Dolphins and whales before our eyes

5.00Wonderful experience., we saw many dolphins right under our boat, so close to hear the call to each other. We witnessed the "lunch" of whales 10 meters from us. Incredible experience
A real sea safari!

5.00Saw a ton of dolphins and some whales. It felt as though the dolphins were showing off for our boat by continuously jumping out of the water next to us! Overall, great guide, great captain and great experience. Thank you!

5.00This trip was amazing!! The crew were so lovely and helpful and incredibly knowledgeable. I learned a lot about my own country on this trip thanks to them! The scenes were beautiful and once we spotted minke whales and dolphins, the crew took extra time to follow them so we could all see the animals. Beautiful music was played on the way back by one of the crew members. Overall best price and best scenery with Dingle Boat Tours!! Can’t recommend enough!!
A great trip with an incredible crew!

Dingel Dolphin and Whale Watching Boat Tour

5.00We have booked the Dingel dolphin and whale watching boat tour online in advance. The booking, as well as the payment were problem-free. You will also receive a confirmation e-mail with the exact address and the meeting point one day before. On the spot, we were already on the passenger list by booking. We had a 4 hour boat tour with a great guide who knew a lot of the scenery and all the local conditions. So you get something of the place and its surroundings right away. During the boat tour the guide had made us aware of the dolphins and we could even see three more minke whales, seals, comorans, water penguins and many seabirds. Those four hours passed like a hurry. An absolutely recommended boat tour, even for children. Very nice guide and a great skipper. The money is really worth it for this and you are not disappointed.
