Itinerary
Day 1
Meet at the West Pier pontoon in Howth for boarding. The cruise is timed to catch the evening light and last approximately 45 minutes; crew will provide local narration and point out wildlife and landmarks.
Boarding at West Pier and Sunset Cruise
Meet at the pontoon on West Pier, Howth. Guests board the vessel, receive a safety briefing from the crew, then depart on a 45-minute narrated cruise around the bay with views of Howth Head and the Dublin coastline as the sun sets.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive at the West Pier pontoon (Pontoon, West Pier, Howth) at least 15 minutes before the scheduled start to allow time for boarding and the safety briefing.
- Wear warm, windproof layers and flat, non-slip shoes — evenings on the water are cooler and breezy even in summer.
- If you are prone to seasickness, take motion-sickness medication before boarding; bring a charged camera or phone with a secure strap for low-light photos.
