A banana boat, often called a water sled or simply a banana, is an inflatable recreational vessel designed for group fun on the water. Towed by a powered boat, this bright, banana-shaped inflatable glides swiftly across the waves, creating an exciting and laughter-filled experience for riders. The thrill comes when the towing boat makes sharp turns, sending the banana boat bouncing over the water and occasionally flipping over for an extra burst of excitement. Riders are required to wear life jackets for safety throughout the adventure. Considered one of the safer water activities compared to water-skiing or jet skiing, banana boat rides are suitable for families and groups, with children as young as four years old able to join in the fun under supervision.

This tour was so much fun—and interesting and informative. We highly recommend it. Don’t let the weather intimidate you. It changes every few minutes—and Conor ensures you’re dressed appropriately. Being on the water and hearing stories and seeing rainbows, harbor porpoises, sea birds, coastal mansions, Dalkey Island, and more, provided a totally different perspective. See Dublin on a Goat Boat Tour with Conor!
This is a magical tour around Dalkey Island and the nearby coastline. It's really exciting when the boat gets up to speed outside the harbour, but the quiet parts are wonderful too. Great stories from a friendly local guide, loads of wildlife and a fascinating look at a lot of the coastal features you'll know from the land side if you live around here. One of the parts I found most interesting was seeing all the private access points into the sea that a lot of the properties around Dalkey and Killiney have. Either wrap up warmly before you arrive or take one of the cosy jackets they provide to protect you from the sea breeze. Overall, a brilliant tour. Highly recommended!
Lovely afternoon spent with Goat Boat Tours in South Dublin bay. We saw parts of Dublin that we had never seen before and it was great fun zipping across the waves. Great fun, safe and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for something different to do.
Great views, plenty of wildlife, Great trip!!! Conor and Ed were brilliant, they made us feel comfortable and clearly love what they do. They shared their extensive knowledge of the sea with us and talked all about the history and marine life of the harbour. We saw plenty of seals and sea birds on the rocks along with loads of jellyfish at the surface. Overall it was a brilliant trip and would definitely go again…
We just had an incredible boat tour that exceeded all my expectations! Ed was super friendly, and as we sailed along the stunning coastline, we were treated to breathtaking views and even spotted seals soaking up the sun by the rocks. We stopped at a beautiful spot to take in the beautiful scenery. The commentary about the area was fascinating, adding to the experience. If you're looking for fun on the water, this tour is a must-do! The kids loved it too. Highly recommend!
