Cape Clear Island & Fastnet Rock Excursion

At 10:45 am, we'll meet at the port of Baltimore to board a ferry to Cape Clear Island. We will sail through Roaringwater Bay until reaching the northern harbor of the island. A bus will take us to the Cape Clear Museum, where we will learn about its history.

Before returning to the ferry, we will stop at the 1979 Fastnet Race Disaster Memorial to learn about this tragic event that significantly impacted the area.

You will have free time to explore the island, see the Fastnet Rock Lighthouse from a different perspective, and dine at a local restaurant.

Upon returning to the ferry, we will travel through the landscapes of the Wild Atlantic Way. If fortunate, we may observe whales and dolphins in these waters. We will approach the islet of Fastnet Rock, home to Ireland's largest lighthouse.

Finally, we will return to Baltimore and conclude the excursion at approximately 4:45 pm.
