Note: Ginger is sometimes a good alternative to anti- seasickness tablets
Warm clothing should be worn during the sailing – even on a
warm day the boat trip can be cool.
Be prepared for rain or sea spray on your journey. While we do
provide waterproof gear on the boat, we recommend that
passengers have their own waterproof clothing.
Bring sunscreen and a hat even on cloudy days.
If you do become sick: (1) let the crew know so they may
help you; (2) drink plenty of water; (3) try to stay warm but
not overly warm; (4) try keeping your gaze fixed on the
horizon.
If conditions are inclement, remain seated for the journey. If
you wish to stand, please do hold on at all times.

The eco tour has multiple departures times throughout the day depending on the sea conditions. The boat tour takes approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes and circles both islands getting right up close to Skellig Michael and the small Skelligs to see both the wildlife and the historical sites. This tour can get quite busy especially in the peak season so it is advisable to book well in advance. This tour does not land on the Island.
