Overview

All our guides are passionate locals who share access to the intimate, local and exclusive coastal community of Howth, its exquisite nature and history. This magical walking and boat tour takes you through time, savouring this ancient village and harbour and a truly magical coastal boat trip. This UNESCO Biosphere shelters wonderful wildlife and fabulous views. Feel old Ireland, in the footsteps of a King. Learn tales of the offshore islands of Ireland Eye and Lambay and where the the Vikings and Normans made their mark. King Sitric founded the 11th century Abbey before Howth Castle and the Pirate Queen famously fell out. The French Revolution left us Martello Towers. Captain William Bligh of the Mutiny on The Bounty did his bit and the young Winston Churchill was hidden from his parents scandals. The Howth Gun Running and the Asgard armed the 1916 Easter Rising. The artists, poets and Rock and Rollers also made themselves at home and U2 cut their teeth here.
