Beautiful and adventurous - It was really nice, despite bad weather and rough seas they tried to do the best for us. It was a nice adventure. Only recommended, is certainly even nicer if there are fewer waves

Magical experience not to be missed - Such a magical day, I went out last Saturday the weather was glorious it was such a beautiful day for a cruise around Dublin bay
To see the beautiful wildlife and fabulous scenery was a lovely experience…
So today Sunday the 15th I did the sunset cruise and that was just as beautiful.
The staff are so friendly and helpful, when you set off there is some great information on board via a speaker…
These cruises are not just for tourists if you’re a local and looking for something new to do this is the ideal way to spend a day out making memories, you won’t be disappointed and it’s great value for money….
I’ll be booking again
Kind regards

Seal of approval (literally) 🦠- Myself and my partner were on this experience on the 6th of September, we ready really enjoyed the trip, it was around 50 minutes and was filled with interesting info about the area. The views were amazing and I’d recommend it to friends 100%. We have already planned to come back as a group once we are all available. We didn’t see any seals on Irelands eye, but we got to spot all three seals which visit the harbour.

How to maximize your visit to Howth, take a cruise. - Had a fantastic weather day in Howth and felt like our visit to Howth was missing something, after walking the cliff trail and having a great meal. It was, a ride around the Irelands Eye. Luckily we were able to book one the last two spots. Knowledgeable commentary on the neat to know factoids of the lighthouse and the island itself. Fantastic sampling of wildlife too. Grey Seals and the aviary in the NW side of the island was amazing. What a great way to complete a visit to Howth. The crew was friendly and professional. Highly recommend Taking a cruise.

A Good Value - This tour was a nice way to spend the morning, especially since we had warm beautiful weather. The views are pretty. My only feedback, is that the audio is a little hard to hear and we were told that a crew member would be walking around answering questions. That did not happen. We just wish we could hear more about what we were seeing. It's not a wow tour but a lovely way to spend an hour.

An hour long trip - This was a cruise from the West Pier at Howth. While the commentary included details about Ireland's Eye, I was extremely disappointed that the boat didn't venture anywhere near the Island. I had expected it to as when I asked I was told that the tour included a trip around Ireland's Eye (no landing). The trip took about 55 minutes.

I didn't really think it was 'whaw' - 25€/person for a 40-minute trip (announced 50 minutes) where you only see some birds on a rock is way too much.
One passenger was given an unfastened plexiglass window on her head. There was hardly any intervention by the two crew members, it's just that the window was better secured after the incident. A minor injury to the head was the result. This could have ended much worse. When mooring, the lady was no longer asked if everything was ok.
The explanation of the guide (a recorded tape) was OK.
