Coastal cruises

Killary Harbour, the long inlet that runs right up to Aasleagh Lodge, is the only natural fjord in Ireland, created by glacial activity over many ice ages. Its steep sides lead into very deep water, and form a natural harbour that offers sanctuary to boats on the west coast.

Offshore the sea is dotted with islands, rich in wildlife and the scenery has to be seen to be believed.

Killary Cruises run guided boat trips every day from March to October from Leenane on a custom-built catamaran cruiser. Seals, otters, sea birds and dolphins can all be viewed during the trip, and the boat also provides full catering.
