We had a wonderful evening last Saturday night with Sean Keane, a celebrated traditional Irish musician renowned for his powerful vocals. With over 30 years in the music industry, Sean has captivated audiences around the world, performing with legends such as The Chieftains and Lรบnasa, and releasing multiple critically acclaimed albums that showcase his deep connection to Irish culture.

As we sailed out from Nancy's Point, the Connemara Lady was filled with enchanting music and captivating stories from this incredible musician. A capacity crowd enjoyed the warm hospitality aboard, creating a memorable atmosphere that resonated with the spirit of the West of Ireland.

Crew member Declan also graced us with a few songs, and, as always, these performances were hugely appreciated by the audience, adding a personal touch to the evening.

We continue sailing daily until the end of September, departing Nancy's Point at 10:30 AM, 12:30 PM, and 2:30 PM. With the barometer set fair for the coming week, there's no better time to marvel at the awe-inspiring scenery of the Killary Fjord in all her autumnal colours.

And just like that, summer has slipped away! As the kids return to school, we can't help but reflect on these last precious days of summer that will soon be slowly fading into memory. The final 4 PM sailing of the year, departing from Nancy's Point, will take place on Saturday, August 31st, marking the end of a beautiful summer season filled with laughter and adventure.

However, as we say goodbye to summer, we eagerly anticipate the arrival of autumn - a time when the Killary Fjord transforms into a stunning canvas of vibrant colours. The fiery hues of autumn foliage breathe life into the landscape, and there's a renewed tang in the sea air that greets us on those cooler mornings. Wraithlike mists begin to weave their way through the valleys, lending the Fjord an enchanting, almost magical quality that captivates everyone who visits.

But donโ€™t worry, the adventure doesn't end here! We are thrilled to announce that we will continue our daily sailings throughout September and October, departing at 10:30 AM, 12:30 PM, and 2:30 PM. We canโ€™t wait to welcome you aboard and share with you this enchanting time of year, where each journey brings new sights and experiences.

Nestled against the foothills of the imposing Mweelrea, the highest mountain in Connacht, standing at 814 meters (2,671 feet), the Connemara Lady appears diminutive, almost like a childโ€™s toy, despite its capacity to comfortably carry 150 passengers plus crew. Mweelrea's towering presence forms a dramatic backdrop, emphasizing the scale of the landscape in contrast to the vessel.

This photo captures the scene at low tide, revealing the high tide mark along the shoreline, which in Killary Fjord can vary by up to 4.5 meters. Killary Fjord, Ireland's only true fjord, experiences significant tidal variations due to its unique geography, adding another layer of intrigue to the areaโ€™s natural beauty.

This Friday, the Connemara Lady had a special guest alongside her in the Killary Fjordโ€”the Western Endeavour, a familiar visitor to these waters.

The Western Endeavour is a significant presence in the Irish fishing fleet, not only due to its impressive size but also its long history. Sailing out of Killybegs, Donegal, this ship was originally launched in 1987 from the Bergen shipyards in Norway. At 64 meters (Some reports indicate 71m) in length and boasting a gross tonnage of 1,988 tons, sheโ€™s built to handle the rugged conditions of the Atlantic Ocean.

Why not experience the beauty of Killary Fjord for yourself? Each day on the fjord is unique, and you never know who you might encounter on its tranquil waters.

Nancys Point, the home of Killary Fjord Boat Tours, is firmly set on the beautiful Galway shores of the magnificent Killary Fjord.

Although the Connemara Lady splits her time between Mayo and Galway, with the border running down the center of the Killary, we are proudly nailing our colours to the mast and supporting Galway in the All Ireland final this weekend.

"Nailing the colours" is a practice dating back to the Age of Sail that expresses a defiant refusal to surrender, and willingness to fight to the last man.

Whatever colours you wear, there is a warm welcome awaiting you on board the Connemara Lady as she serenely cruises the awe inspiring Killary Fjord.

One of Killary Fjord's many regular visitors, a young grey seal, suns itself on the rocks near Nancy's Point.

Grey seals can dive as deep as 300 meters and hold their breath for up to 20 minutes. They also have a remarkable ability to sleep underwater without drowning.

Fun fact: Grey seals are known to sing underwater, making them the crooners of the sea!

The Connemara Lady wasn't the only catamaran gracing Killary Fjord today; this evening, we were joined by the stunning Meteore.

This French-registered beauty, stretching 16 meters in length, is a sight to behold under full sail.

The term "catamaran" originates from the Tamil word "kattumaram," meaning "logs bound together." Itโ€™s clear that both the Meteore and our very own Connemara Lady are far more sophisticated than their humble origins!

Today, we welcomed numerous small craft, known as RIBs, on Killary Fjord as they made a slight detour during the Inisboffin charity rib run.

A RIB, or rigid inflatable boat, combines a traditional rigid hull with an inflatable collar. This design makes the boat stable, light, fast, and seaworthy. The inflatable collar functions like a life jacket, ensuring the vessel remains buoyant even if it takes on water.

Every day on Killary Fjord brings new experiences. Join us to discover what adventures await. Book now at www.killaryfjord.ie.

Despite the overcast weather, the Connemara Lady was once again accompanied this afternoon by the resident pod of bottlenose dolphins from the Killary Fjord.

These playful creatures love riding the bow waves of the Connemara Lady and are often spotted at the mouth of the fjord where it meets the Atlantic Ocean.

The pod is healthy and continues to grow each year, reflecting the thriving ecosystem and pristine waters of the Killary Fjord.

Join us on a tour of the Killary Fjord and you might be lucky enough to encounter its most exuberant residents!

Last night was truly extraordinary as the Connemara Lady welcomed the legendary Sean Keane aboard for an enchanting evening of music and storytelling. The atmosphere was electric as Sean captivated a full house with his rich repertoire, blending timeless classics with fresh, new songs. The audience, swept away by the melodies, relished the beautiful summer evening while cruising on the serene waters of the Killary Fjord.

The night was made even more special by the breathtaking surroundings. The tranquil fjord, bathed in the golden hues of the setting sun, provided a stunning backdrop to the musical performance. The gentle lapping of the water against the boat added a soothing rhythm to the evening, enhancing the overall experience.

Adding to the magic, our talented crew member Declan delighted everyone with a few songs of his own, delivered in his inimitable style. His heartfelt performance was met with enthusiastic applause, proving once again that music is the soul of the Connemara Lady.

The evening was a perfect blend of natural beauty, exceptional music, and warm camaraderie. Guests left with smiles, already looking forward to the next opportunity to share such a memorable experience.

We are thrilled to announce that Sean Keane will be joining us again in September. We eagerly await his return and the chance to create more unforgettable memories on the Killary Fjord. Don't miss out on what promises to be another magical night aboard the Connemara Lady.

THE TOUR

The view of Killary from the shore is certainly a spectacular one, but taking to the water here gives you a whole new perspective.

Our cruise starts at Nancyโ€™s Point, just West of Leenane Village, on the South side of the Killary. From there we set off towards the the mouth of the Fjord.

Take in the panoramic views of the surrounding landscape โ€“ hills rising steeply from the silvery sea, with frequent shifts in light and shadow creating different colours on the peaks and valleys. Deep green fields and occasional stands of trees contrast with heathery bogs.
