Seal Watching Trips:
We at Dive Arranmore offer a wide range of marine activities which include diving, sea angling, sea safari and marine heritage tours and private charters. In 2016, we began our seal watching trips. If you are considering an activity you might like to do whilst visiting Arranmore Island or the Burtonport and Dungloe areas, our 1 hour long seal watching trip is a perfect activity for a day out. Trips depart Arranmore Island and Burtonport Harbour. From Burtonport Harbour, we navigate through the sheltered waters of Rutland and Inishfree Islands, along Dungloe Bay. In order to avoid disturbing the seals, we reduce speed and engine noise upon approaching their haul out areas. Trip duration is approximately 1 hour.
Times of departure, trips duration and time of return can vary due to tidal and weather conditions and locations of seals.
