Skellig Michael boats

Skellig Michael Tours was launched on the 23/7/2013. This initiative was our brain child as we could clearly see a gap in the Skellig boats market providing tours for people who were unable climb to the rock. We now have 8 Skellig boats operating tours around both Skellig islands.

We operate 8 Skellig boats.

The Marber Therese II
Skellig Star
Skellig Dawn
The Sundance Kid
Jessica Kate
Skellig Flyer
Mám an Oraigh

The Marber Therese II A Cygnus cyfish 39 is our biggest Skellig boat again with seats on inside and outside. Having seats inside ensures comfort and shelter from the weather while the seats outside enable all passengers to enjoy a full view of Skellig Michael in comfort.

The Marber Therese II is a new charter boat built to the highest standards for carrying passengers around Skellig Michael. This newly built Cygnis Cyfish 39 has a full Irish P5 licence.

The boat has been named after my father’s trawler “The Marber Therese” which was built and launched in Dingle in 1981. It remained in full operation until 2009.

Skellig Flyer

The latest addition to our fleet

Skellig Dawn

As the demand for our Skellig Michael Eco Cruises has been steadily increasing we acquired the Skellig Dawn in April 2015.

Skellig dawn is a Aquastar43 with island wheel house were people can safely walk up to bow of boat to take pictures when boat is stopped at Skellig Michael on a day when seas are very calm to do so.
