From Cork: Fastnet Rock Lighthouse & Cape Clear Island Tour

Take a ferry from Baltimore or Schull and cross the stunning waters of Roaring Water Bay, well known for wildlife spotting. Arriving at Cape Clear Island's North Harbour, enjoy free time exploring this Gaeltacht island (Irish Speaking), immersing yourself in its rich culture, old traditions, and traditional farming life.

Discover the Napoleon ic Tower, Dún an Óir Castle, a 12th-century church, ancient standing stones and the island's memorial to the 1979 Fastnet Yacht Race Disaster. Wander scenic walking trails, stop at breathtaking lookout points, and spot Fastnet Rock Lighthouse in the distance. Or simply relax in the harbour and watch the world go by!

For lunch, savour fresh island produce at one of Cape Clear's charming bars or restaurants before reboarding the ferry. Sit back as your experienced captain navigates deeper into the Wild Atlantic Way—you may even catch sight of whales and dolphins along the way.

As you circle Fastnet Rock, Ireland and the UK's tallest and widest lighthouse, listen to onboard commentary about its history and significance. Hear the story of the “Teardrop of Ireland,” the last glimpse of home seen by emigrant ships bound for the New World.

After two full circuits of Fastnet Rock—ensuring everyone gets the perfect photo—head back to shore, taking in spectacular coastal scenery on the journey home.
