FAQs
As required by law, lifejackets for all passengers are stowed onboard for use in the event of an emergency. Passengers are not required to wear a lifejacket on the ferry boat. Nor is the captain required to provide a lifejacket for this journey.
On arrival at the Saltee Islands, passengers must put on a lifejacket before disembarking from the ferry boat to the dinghy (small boat), to be brought to shore.
Due to the limited amount of space on the boat and the dinghy transfer across to the island, should you wish to bring a buggy we would ask that it be extremely lightweight and foldable.
Note: the island terrain is rugged. At the landing area you will need to climb the set of ancient stone steps to access the rest of the island. There are no level paths. Paths are worn tracks by walkers and uneven from animals digging and burrowing. It is not buggy-friendly.
No. All of our sailings are scheduled. Passenger lists for each scheduled crossing cannot be changed.

The trip is not suitable for anyone with any limited mobility. The boat trip includes stepping from the main boat to a small dinghy to go ashore. There is no landing dock or pier. On arrival, you may need to step into the water’s edge when getting out of the dinghy. There could be seaweed, or loose slippery stones along the shore. Conditions vary daily, depending on weather and tide, and are beyond our control.
To leave the beach, there are uneven stone steps to climb. The island itself is wild terrain with no built pathways. Rabbits and other wildlife can cause disturbance in the ground making the surface very uneven in parts.
Caution is advised for all visitors. Children should be constantly supervised at all times by an accompanying adult.
