Brilliant experience and what a fabulous crew - Aquaterra gave us a day we’ll never forget. The boat trip itself was fantastic — safe, smooth, and full of jaw-dropping views. We circled Skellig Beag first, getting up close to the cliffs and birdlife, before heading on to Skellig Michael. Stepping onto the island and climbing those ancient steps was the highlight of a lifetime. On the way back we were lucky enough to see dolphins swimming alongside us, which was just incredible. The crew were brilliant throughout — professional, welcoming, and clearly passionate about the place. It never felt rushed, and they made sure everyone had the best possible experience. If you’re thinking about it, book it. You won’t regret it.

Skelligs tour - best experience of my life!! - My husband and I went to the Skelligs and it was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. You go in small groups of only 12 people, you are well looked after and feel very safe.

Spellings experience - Brilliant trip and very accommodating with a last minute change of plans. We would highly recommend doing the trip with Aqua Terra, they made the most of the favorable conditions today to bring us to places rarely accessible by sea.

Skellig Islands Experience - We had a truly enjoyable experience with the Aqua Terra boat tour to the Skellig Islands. From the very beginning Brandon and Elizabeth were incredibly friendly and welcoming and they made us feel at home on board. Their passion and enthusiasm for the islands were contagious and they shared many fascinating stories and insights that made the trip very special. We were lucky to have beautiful weather and their warm and knowledgeable guidance turned the day into something unforgettable. On the way we were thrilled to see plenty of dolphins swimming around the boat which was an absolute highlight. All in all it was a fantastic trip and a unique experience. We can highly recommend the Aqua Terra boat tour. It is a must do when visiting the area.

Unforgettable Experience at Skellig Michael – A Trip of a Lifetime! - Unforgettable Experience at Skellig Michael – A Trip of a Lifetime! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the most amazing tour of Skellig Michael! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely breathtaking. The boat itself was stunning and incredibly well-maintained, and our hosts were fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. We learned so much about the island's rich history, the surrounding ocean, and the fascinating stories of the lighthouses we passed. Seeing them up close from the sea was a truly unique and unforgettable perspective. What stood out the most was how thoughtful and safety-conscious the crew was. They made sure everyone on board felt safe, comfortable, and most importantly—had a great time. We're from Indianapolis and this was without a doubt one of the highlights of our entire trip to Ireland. If you're considering a boat tour, this is the one to book. Highly, highly recommend!

Brilliant experience - An amazing experience, to see the fabulous Skellig Michael was unbelievable. Don't eat too much before you travel. Take sea sickness tablets beforehand. Staff were brilliant and guide was so interesting. Allow time to watch movie and do museum tour.
