Cliff & Coast Safari

Please note:

• This is a tour to a breath-taking but remote coastal area, which is exposed to all elements. While every effort is made to locate wildlife, these are wild animals so we cannot guarantee sightings. Our customers safety is our priority so if required we may need to chose an alternative route in certain weather conditions. In this case, all our Skippers have complete discretion to amend the trip to ensure they provide both a safe and highly enjoyable experience for you.

Explore the Shannon Estuary and Kerry coastline

This Cliff & Coast Safari tour consists of a 2 hour safari tour on the Shannon Estuary, where we show you the sights from the comfort of our 10 passenger RIB.
We depart from Kilrush Marina, and the first stop is at the Lock gates, our gateway to the Shannon Estuary. Once through the gates, we’re off! Our first sights are of the local islands of Hog and Scattery, where we slow down to show you the islands sights. Then its time to hold tight as we head West to explore the Shannon Estuary. This stretch of water is an area of outstanding natural beauty, with its island and cliff coasts, wildlife and dolphins. Feel the fresh air on your face and the freedom of the great outdoors! Explore hidden coves and sea stacks and soak up the sights as we get up close and personal with this beautiful stretch of the Shannon River.
