Dolphin Discovery

Welcome to Dolphin Discovery, a must-visit establishment and point of interest located at Kilrush, Merchants Quay. As a popular tourist attraction, we strive to provide our visitors with an unforgettable experience of encountering dolphins in their natural habitat. However, it is important to note that these are wild animals, and sightings cannot be guaranteed.

With our exceptional success rate of spotting dolphins, which exceeds 98%, we assure you that we go above and beyond to maximize your chances of an incredible encounter. In the unfortunate event that you do not spot any dolphins during your trip, we offer a generous 25% refund to ensure your satisfaction.

Our sailings are subject to weather conditions and minimum participant requirements. To accommodate extra sailings or tidal conditions, sailing times may occasionally change at short notice. Rest assured, we will notify you of your confirmed sailing time one day in advance through a convenient text message.

Situated in a Special Area of Conservation, our location serves as both a feeding and breeding ground for dolphins, including their adorable calves. During your journey, you may be lucky enough to witness the joyous sight of newborn dolphins, a truly heartwarming experience.

The trip itself lasts approximately 2½ hours, providing ample time for you to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Wild Atlantic Way. Each encounter with these magnificent creatures is unique, whether it be witnessing their breathtaking leaps out of the water or simply observing them gracefully swimming alongside the boat.

We invite you to join us at Dolphin Discovery, located at Kilrush Marina in Kilrush, Co. Clare, Ireland.
