Nice tour of Dingle Bay, with a some historical references but a lot of info about fungie the dolphin. Make sure to sit on the Starboard (right) side of the boat for the best views of the cliffs on the way out since the boat does not sail close enough to the cliffs on the way back to get as good a view from the port side.
Response from Host, Sep 2025

A fun and quick way to see the Dingle Peninsula! Our tour guide was entertaining and knowledgeable. This was a fun way to see another side of Dingle. It’s only about an hour and a half so it’s a great way to start your day and still have plenty of time to experience the town!
I highly recommend

We'd a fantastic experience from start to finish on Lady Laura. Our tour guide and skipper were so friendly and informative. The tour guide was so kind to my children and answered lots of questions. We were surprised to see lots of Dolphins and the staff were so patient, stopping for some time so we could all watch this amazing experience and take photos of the Dolphins. Excellent value for money and would highly recommend.

Rod_D, May 2025
Great tour - the guide was very well versed on the history of dingle and the bay. The captain was very adept at maneuvering the boat to get close to the cliffs for some great pics. It’s only 1 hour, which is perfect for fitting into a day trip to Dingle. Great picture opportunities you will not get from the shore.
