The Lighthouse Tours

The sightings we can guarantee.
Rathlin Island keeps three lighthouses, including Ireland's famous upside-down West Light, with the lamp at the bottom so the fog can't hide it. Every one of these tours sails the lighthouse coast.

Puffins choose their own days. The lighthouses never miss a sailing.
