Fun Trip - Just great. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The rain was irrelevant, but as a bonus out came the sun! The commentary was informative and also quite hilarious!

Great Views with a Great Guide - The cruise was brilliant I can't recommend it enough. The tour guide was the highlight of the cruise. She had such a vast knowledge about the area and it was such a treat to hear about the local history and the islands around Clew Bay. The views were amazing and sailing right by the seal colony was lovely. The boat is very comfortable and you can sit either upstairs in the open or downstairs where there's shelter. I would definitely return again!

Clew Bay Cruise - The trip was fantastic, beyond our expectations.
The lady guide was very informative and humorous.
She was so knowledgeable that after the 45 min commentary nobody had any questions at the end.
If we had been staying longer I think that we would have booked another excursion !
Clew Bay Cruise is definitely a must for anyone staying in Westport.

Clew Bay cruise - Loved our cruise yesterday Monday 19th August. The weather wasn’t great but the crew made it very enjoyable. The captain of the boat was extremely knowledgeable and we learned a lot from his commentary. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone coming to Westport. We all thoroughly enjoyed it ☘️

An informative break from the day - If you're in or near Westport this is one not to be missed. Kevin was a superb guide whose enthusiasm and knowledge were completely evident; he loves his work and his subject as you'd hope and expect. We struck lucky with the weather and with the amount of seals sunbathing that day and as well as absorbing the terrific views we learned a fair bit of history we hadn't known about before.
This is highly recommendable.

Well worth doing and some interesting history to the place. - Very efficient and well run leaving on time. The lady who did the commentary and history of the area was excellent and this was very interesting especially the bits around a certain Beatle. The scenery is simply stunning and we got to see loads of seals both in and out of the water. The tragic historical events were interwoven in a sensitive fashion which was appropriate. Book online beforehand as our slot was sold out well in advance. It can get quite cold and blustery on the open top deck even during the height of summer so make sure you arrive dressed for the occasion.

Clew Bay Cruise - We liked the whole trip very much, particularly Orla’s commentary and the musician who entertained us on the return to the harbour.
However, my husband didn’t like the endless wandering of children and some of their parents. Especially the many who stood on his sore feet, only one of whom apologised.
If we came again, we wouldn’t sit by the windows as the leg room is quite small unfortunately.
