Our boats are the only Aran Island ferries with electronic stabilisers.  The stabilisers use the same technology that keep passenger cruise vessels steady, and make the journey very smooth and comfortable - just ask any of the islanders that travel with us.

Relax on the lower deck in our bright and spacious indoor seating area with luxury
seats, DVD viewing, and bar/shop.

Or, breathe in the fresh air of the Atlantic Ocean on the upper deck – choose from
open or sheltered seating areas.

Our boats also have wheelchair accessible toilets, and most sailings have a lift for
wheelchairs and buggys – just enquire when you are booking.

Enjoy your crossing safe in the knowledge that our crew, mostly Islanders themselves,
are trained to the highest standards and are committed to making your visit to the Aran
Islands a trip to remember.
