GetYourGuide’s list for Dingle itself is short — a handful of boat trips and a Slea Head bus tour — but they are good ones. Most other tours of the peninsula start from Killarney. Local operators in Dingle also sell Blasket Island ferries, kayaking and guided archaeology tours directly at the harbour.

Booking notes
- Coverage is thin. If nothing suits on your dates, ask at the tourist office on Strand Street or at the harbour kiosks, where local boatmen and guides take bookings.
- Boats are weather-dependent and run mainly from April to October. Dress warmly — it is cold on the water even in July.
- Great Blasket ferries sail in season from Dunquin, Ventry and Dingle when the sea allows; landing is by small boat and can be cancelled at short notice.
- Wildlife is wild. Dolphins, seals and, in late summer, whales are regularly seen but never guaranteed.
