UP CLOSE & PERSONAL
Our small group Howth boat tours allow nature to take centre stage as we explore the nooks and crannies along the islands waterline, getting up close and personal with the mesmerising nature and wild creatures. This is a Nature Reserve protected by EU habitats and the core zone of the UN Dublin Bay Biosphere.
See the large colony of seals around the island and in the water around the harbour.
A spectacular natural feature, is the huge freestanding rock called “the Stack”. Located at the northeastern corner of the island, it plays host to a large variety of seabirds.

Beautiful, informative, and fun. Shane and his first mate were kind, welcoming, funny, and full of stories, history, and information about the nature around us. It’s off season but we got a gorgeous sunny late afternoon voyage and an up-close view of the island, birds, and seals. They clearly love this place and it shows. I would do this again next time I come to Howth. Highly recommend. Thanks to both of you!
