Explore Dingle's Vibrant Sea Life on Blasket Islands Tour

Dingle Peninsula, where the sky meets the sea

The pristine waters that lap against the shores of the Dingle Peninsula, are home to some of the most abundant sea life in Ireland. Humpback Whales graze the blue waters in search of food, while Dolphins, from Common to Bottlenose, dance playfully in the waves and race alongside our boat.

Our native Grey Seals, rest on the beaches of the Blasket Islands, while native sea birds such as the European Storm Petrels, Puffins and Fulmars, call the cragged cliffs their homes.

Red Deer can also be spotted at home on Inishvickilane, introduced by a Private owner.
