Unique - Trip of a Lifetime - Just a glorious and exciting day out. We were very fortunate with the weather (Ireland Wild Escapes' Cathy had kindly messaged to postpone for two days as our first date's forecast was somewhat "iffy") and, on the way out, enjoyed a relaxed half-way, 2 hour stop to explore some of Cape Clear Island's features. The icing on the cake, though, was a long enough stop, circling really close to Fastnet Rock Lighthouse whilst listening to a very detailed and interesting commentary. The operator, Cape Clear Ferries, was totally professional and helpful, with polite, friendly staff and well-kept boats, especially the larger, faster one out to Fastnet.

Fabulous day out - Fabulous day out, stopped on Cape first, did the 5k hike on Cape, had lunch, than caught ferry to Fastnet, paid €45 each for trip, great value.

Highly recommended - Absolutely fantastic trip, I would highly recommend this You can either do a stop on Cape Clear Island for 2 or 3 hours followed by a trip around fastnet or the direct to fastnet tour We done the fastnet direct as we had already visited the beautiful Cape Clear Island. We left Baltimore at 2 o'Clock and stopped on Cape Clear to allow people who were visiting the island to get off and we switched to a bigger boat which was already at the pier so no waiting around. If wildlife are around the boat will stop to let you have a look. We were lucky to see some dolphins, and the sea was really calm. It doesnt really matter what side of the boat you sit as the boat does a circle of Fastnet clockwise and anti clockwise so no matter where you sit, you will have a perfect view. The crew are very obliging and we were delighted that they offered to take our picture in front of the lighthouse, this is a lovely touch! On the way back we stopped briefly on Cape Clear to allow people on but there was no changing boats this time. We were back in Baltimore for 16.45 Even if its a lovely day, just remember to bring something warm to wear as it does get chilly on the sea. Baltimore gets really crowded on a nice day so make sure to leave plenty of time for parking and getting to the ferry If you book your tickets online, be sure to visit the little ticket office first as you actually need to paper ticket to board.

Xxxx - Highly recommend,,great family day out,,Good value for money .Staff are excellent & extremely helpful.Highlight is the trip over to the Fastnet lighthouse .

A Can’t Miss Experience!! - Wonderful day-trip out of Baltimore Harbour. Cape Clear Island had everything we needed (hiking opportunities for me and a lovely pub for my husband). The ferry from there to Fastnet was as good as it gets for providing stunning up-close views of one of the most beautiful and impressive lighthouses in the world. This is a can’t miss experience!

Amazing Fastnet - Truly amazing trip around the Fastnet Rock. Our tour commentator was so interesting and informative. Cape Clear ferries staff very welcoming. 10 out if 10. Will def recommend to all my friends 🧡

Highly recommended. - Fastnet is iconic. A must see! Benefits were dolphins a whale, seals and all on time. The crew was knowledgeable , took photos for everyone and gave the kids a visit to the bridge. A day well spent!

Great trip - We had an amazing trip staff were so helpful and chatty both the island and lighthouse were truly amazing and am so glad we did it we had great weather as a bonus

Tourist for a day - Great experience and absolutely worth doing this, staff are excellent and very efficient, nothing they could do about the weather but it added to the experience

Nice visit, too expensive - Pleasant visit, especially on the island which is really typical. Only around 100 inhabitants, all adorable. A café allows you to eat at a very affordable price. On the other hand, the price of the cruise is too high
