Skellig Michael Tour
Circle the legendary UNESCO World Heritage site with a local skipper
A Monastery on the Edge of the World
Skellig Michael juts out of the Atlantic like a stone spear. For centuries, early Christian monks lived on its sheer cliffs, building a beehive monastery that still stands today. From the water, you’ll see the full scale of their achievement — and the seabirds that now share their home.
Our tour circles the island, giving you the best views of the monastery, the landing steps, and the colonies of gannets, guillemots and puffins. Your skipper will point out the landmarks and share the stories that make this place one of Ireland’s most treasured sites.
