Great Blasket Island Experience – Unique Boat Tours and Accommodation.
The Great Blasket Island is a remote Island located off the Dingle Peninsula. With over 1,100 acres of unspoiled largely mountainous terrain, the Great Blasket Island is approximately 4 miles long by 1/2 mile wide. Now classified as a Special Area of Conservation, it is home to an abundance of wildlife and fauna. This uninhabited Island is thriving with Irish history, heritage and life. Take one of our popular Great Blasket Island Boat Tours or overnight in unique self catering accommodation, immersing yourself in the ultimate Irish getaway.
The Great Blasket Island is one of the most remote parts of the Irish Language Speaking areas of Corca Dhuibhne. Although deserted since 1953 it is famous for the abundance of literature produced by the Irish speaking inhabitants who will live on forever through the documentation by them of the extraordinary details of their ordinary lives
“Dheineas mo dhícheall an chuntas cruinn a chur síos ar an dream a raibh aithne agam ortha, ionas go mbeadh cuimhne orainn ar Shlí na Fírinne” Peig Sayers 1873- 1958

Boat Tour of the Great Blasket Islands"Wonderful day trip!
The entire tour was first class! The trip to the island in the speed boat was really fun and the scenery was incredible. We stopped along the way and saw several breathtaking views."

Great Blasket Island Accommodation"One of the best accommodation experiences I have ever had. The cottage is so lovely. Located above the beach, expect to fall asleep listening to the waves and the seals."
Great Blasket Island Accommodation"Our party of four enjoyed a wonderful trip to the island and truly enjoyed a return to the simple pleasures in life. The view to the beach from our little house was stunning and the lack of distractions such as mobile phones, television and radio etc only enhanced the experience."
