Inishbofin Ferry
Review
The Inishbofin Ferry is more than just a mode of transport, it’s a vital lifeline to one of Ireland’s most enchanting offshore islands. Inishbofin, which translates from Gaelic as “Island of the White Cow,” welcomes thousands of visitors each year, and this ferry ensures a smooth and reliable journey to and from its rugged shores. Operating a summer timetable from March to September and a reduced schedule outside these months, the service is consistent and dependable. As well as ferrying passengers, the boat also transports all freight to the island, making it an essential part of island life. Inishbofin itself is far bigger than most expect, with a landscape rich in beauty, historic ruins, and guided walking tours that showcase its unique charm. A day trip simply isn’t enough, give yourself the time to truly explore. With friendly crew and a well-organised service, the Inishbofin Ferry is your gateway to island magic.
