Jay, our skipper, went above and beyond — guided us to hidden coves, told us the history of Skellig Michael and the lighthouse. The highlight for my son was getting to drive the boat on the way back!

Captain Nicky's storytelling was infectious — the monks, the wildlife, and even behind-the-scenes stories from Star Wars! We laughed, we learned, and we were completely in awe. 10/10!

We took the boat at sunset — unforgettable. Paul strayed so we could see dolphins and gannets fishing and explained a lot of curiosities about the islands. Highly recommended!!

Jay shared that his grandfather manned the lighthouse on Skellig Michael — which made it extra special. Navigating into nooks and crannies for intimate views. We did see dolphins — an added bonus!

Booked a late August cruise at 5:15pm. Puffins already left so we didn't expect much. We were wrong! From driving along a fin whale to seeing over 70,000 gannets. Aidan was fantastic.

Jay stopped the boat, shut off the engine, and asked us to go into the forecastle to listen to dolphins communicating. Quite fascinating. Highly recommend Skellig Michael Cruises!

Crystal clear unpolluted blue waters. The gannet colony on Little Skellig is the 2nd largest in the world. The skipper gives every opportunity to take photographs. We were blessed to see a Minke Whale. I have been many times — god willing I'll go again.

Nicky provided a fun and informative tour with hilarious commentary. We got up close to the islands, perfect views of the birds, and spent time with playful porpoises. Book it — you will not be disappointed!

We arrived outside regular hours. The crew went above and beyond — an exclusive ride beneath majestic cliffs, like a private marine safari! The crew's flexibility and passion were truly outstanding.

Miky skippering with entertaining and knowledgeable commentary. Skellig Michael — where 5th-century monks lived and Star Wars was filmed. Small Skellig: home to the second largest gannet colony in the world. A few memorable hours.

The boat stayed out as long as we needed. The colony of northern gannets on Little Skellig was incredible. A bumpy ride at times — it's the Atlantic — but that only adds to it. I'd always do it again!

One passenger wasn't feeling well and we had to turn back. The staff immediately offered us a spot on the 3pm tour and we ended up having a fantastic trip. The professionalism of the crew really stood out.

Jay and Nick were great. We did a non-landing tour but still saw so many ins and outs of the Skellig islands — dolphins, puffins and seals. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting.

Jay & Ben were wonderful guides! We had such a blast — saw dolphins and whales. Felt otherworldly, and Jay & Ben were right there making us smile and laugh, all while learning so much!

Rachel was informative and friendly and went above and beyond with her local knowledge when we wanted recommendations for where to go after the trip. Once in a lifetime experience, 10/10!

Skipper Nicky was seasoned with great humour. I have always wanted to go and it was honestly the highlight of the weekend in Kerry. I seldom leave reviews but if it is amazing I will. Lifetime memory!

Jay was full of details and anecdotes from a long family affiliated with the Skellig and its history. His boat cuts through the wake brilliantly. Book them — they are a wonderful local business.

Jay was so kind and very knowledgeable about the animals. He stopped the ship multiple times to allow us to see the dolphins following us. Would greatly recommend this cruise.
