Overview

The ferry to Ireland’s Eye is a picturesque and tranquil journey across the waters of the Irish Sea. Passengers can enjoy stunning views of the rugged coastline and the iconic Howth Head cliffs as they make their way to the small, uninhabited island.

Weather permitting, the ferry will land at the island where passengers can disembark and explore the rugged beauty of Ireland’s Eye.

Visitors can also take a stroll around the island, taking in the stunning views of the mainland. The island’s ancient Martello tower, which dates back to the early 19th century, is a popular landmark. The island offers panoramic views of the surrounding area, and the opportunity for a gorgeous sea swim in the clear waters on the west-facing beach. The island is home to a variety of bird species, including puffins, gannets, and cormorants, making it a popular spot for birdwatchers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I get seasick on Ferry to Ireland’s Eye in Howth?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
