Great boat trip to howth. Although it started of windy & spitting rain, We sat downstairs undercover and looked out from the windows. Rain stopped,then The sun then came out. So we were able to go above deck and take in the beautiful scenery of howth as we approached, got to see some dolphins aswell, so was a bonus Great little boat trip, over, then the train back.

Great day out. We brought our 2 grandchildren on the trip and they thought that it was brilliant. This is my third time doing the trip from Dunlaoghiare to Howth and there will be more trips.
