BLASKET ISLANDS ECO FERRY

We take time to actively look for and spot (common) dolphins; (Minke) whales; basking shark ( April / May); seals and sea birds along the way, and stop for a while if / when we encounter marine wildlife in Dingle Bay and the Blaskets.

We observe all the best environmental practices as regards:

• “Leave no trace” – This applies to both our customers and ourselves
• No rubbish discarded, all rubbish is recycled, from plastic water bottles to used
  engine oil and filters
• We have a company signed environmental policy
• Holding tank on board for on shore sewerage disposal.
• Absolutely no rubbish overboard (or customers go with it!).
• Our customers can be satisfied that we / they leave as small a footprint as possible due to low emissions; efficient and well maintained engines with low fuel consumption and maximum efficiency at cruise speed (10 kts.)
• We pay all our team a living wage.
• We are a community based, local, community-aware and resourced company and we are socially and environmentally responsible.

When you travel with Blasket Islands Eco Ferry you contribute not only to the success of a locally based and resourced local provider, but you also contribute to the success of our local Gaeltacht community by staying local; dining / shopping local and enjoying local activities, amenities and entertainment around Ventry Harbour and the beautiful seaside village of Ventry – Ceann Trá
