Why Echtra Echtra features this
Because this pod is resident year-round, Dolphinwatch Carrigaholt has one of the highest successful sighting rates of any tour in Ireland.
Located on the Loop Head Peninsula in County Clare, Dolphinwatch Carrigaholt takes passengers into the mouth of the River Shannon, home to Ireland’s only known resident pod of bottlenose dolphins. The tours are led by passionate experts who emphasize non-intrusive observation, allowing these playful mammals to interact with the boat on their own terms.
