    Efficient ferry with a frequent timetable. Good value if you're looking to save drive time.

    Our smooth and calm crossing of the Shannon River took around 30 minutes. The vessel was different from the other ferries I've been on. In the Shannon Ferry we drove straight onto the deck without descending into a subterranean world in the bowels of the boat. You could walk up to a second level to get a view of the scenery, or grab a coffee and a snack form the snack bar on the main level. There was plenty of room on the ferry for our 40-person bus and passengers, which was pretty cool to see.

    Buy your ticket online at the Shannon ferry website and save 3 euros. Ferry runs once an hour. But in Summer thru oct 1 runs every 1/2 hr. They extended 1/2 hr departures thru oct 6. If driving Killarney to Cliffs of Moher, take ferry for more scenic route. Alternate route thru Limerick is industrial

    The mighty Fiat rental car filled with my weighty family was no match for the floatational properties of the Shannon Ferry

    It is extremely crowded but I'm glad I went once at least. We went all the way down the right side…read morepath to the end because I wanted to try to get some photos of the Aran Islands and that side was quite crowded and a bit narrow especially around the stairs. It was also windy enough that it was pushing us along at a light jog/trot at a couple points. No joke. I had suggested that my mom remove her hearing aid for our walk and that was probably a good idea. Remove your hats, sunglasses etc and tuck them away safely. Tie back long hair. Great views on a clear day though. Go early and hope for good skies.

    Views here great. But wow it does seem like a money grab for people traveling in families. The…read moreprice is per person unlike the National Parks in the US charging by the car. So a car of adults could become VERY VERY EXPENSIVE! With all the hiking trails closed and the amount of places you could hike to (cant even goto the southern viewpoint), it definitely is not worth the price. I ended up doing the hike from Doolin (8 miles round trip to Pats View) trudging through tons of mud and rain and not only is the view better, you dont have those stone barriers blocking the view. Park in Doolin early and do the hike from there. Note there are so many closures to the trail as of 11/2025 makes the 15EUR not worth. But I came early before they started charging. They don't kick you out if you are already in there as well.
