very good experience, it was very windy that day, but the boat driver was very good, I just didn't like that we didn't put on the life jackets, but they were under the seats.

Our Skipper Maggie created a magical and informative boat tour of the cliffs that will stand out as our whole family’s highlight of our trip to Ireland. Just the perfect mix for us of relaxation and education in a gorgeous setting at sea. Cheers, Maggie!

This experience was a highlight of our vacation! Our guide was great, discussed interesting facts and myths about the area, very interactive. Boat allows movable space without feeling crowded.

We had a very positive experience with Howth Cliff Cruises. They had to change our booking as with tidal conditions changing, the earliest drop on the island was to be the 14:20 sailing. The boat can take a lot of people comfortably. We disembarked onto a smaller boat as it was easier to go from this boat onto the island.
