Sightseeing Tours

Seeing the Sliabh Liag cliffs from the water is an unforgettable experience.

Only from a boat can you truly understand the sheer size of the towering sea cliffs. Along the way you'll see hidden features of the cliffs that you just can't see from land.

It’s a fresh, awe-inspiring perspective that lets you feel the power and beauty of Donegal’s coastline in a way that’s both peaceful and exhilarating.

Mammal Watching

During the season we see a variety of marine wildlife:

  • Bottlenose and common dolphins
  • Minke, humpback, fin and sometimes even orca whales
  • Tuna
  • Basking sharks
  • Seals
  • An assortment of birds

Mammal watching trips can be booked by private tour only (unless otherwise stated).

Swimming Trips

If you’re heading to Sliabh Liag, don’t miss the chance to swim in the waters below. There’s nothing else quite like a dip in the crystal clear water of the Atlantic.

Make sure to pack your swim gear along with you. We have a limited number of towels and wet suits available, so we recommend bringing your own if possible.
