Shannon Ferries links the picturesque Tralee and Dingle regions to the untamed beauty of Loop Head, the Burren, the Cliffs of Moher and the mountains of Ballyhoura in the Golden Vale of Limerick.
Ideally located on the Wild Atlantic Way, Shannon Ferries offers travellers a break from the road with their 20-minute passage across the Shannon. Sit back, relax and keep an eye out for dolphin swimming.
Established in 1969 in response to the demand for a route across the Shannon Estuary from Kerry to Clare, the Shannon Ferries service now operates two ferries, the Shannon Breeze and the Shannon Dolphin, which depart from Tarbert in Co. Kerry to Killimer in Co. Clare.
Choose from the mixture of majestic mountains and ever-changing coastlines, lakelands, woodlands and bustling towns in Kerry, or the equally majestic Atlantic coastline in Clare. With Shannon Ferries, the possibilities are endless and there is something to suit everyone!
The service accommodates pedestrian passengers, cyclists, cars, coaches, mini-buses, and commercial vehicles.
Tarbert is on the N69 from Listowel and the R551 to N69 from Ballybunion.
