The residents of Cape Clear Island are a priority for Cape Clear Ferries. We always keep spaces on board each sailing for islanders.
However, we do recommend that you book ahead – during busy seasons – to ensure your space is kept. We also have ten-trip tickets that are particularly useful for family and friends – or anyone regularly travelling to the island.
If you are a new full-time resident to the island, please get in touch to say hello!
We’d love to welcome you to Cape Clear Island and ensure we know you when sailing with Cape Clear Ferries.
You can get in touch on info@capeclearferries.com or by calling us on 028 39159. You can contact the boat directly by calling 0863465110
Cars and other vehicles cannot be carried on Cape Clear Ferries. Bicycles and kayaks are permitted on board at a cost of €2 per item but must be booked in advance.
Because of Cape Clear Island’s the weather is often different to that on the mainland of Ireland. For up-to-date weather information, please click here.
All cargo is carried from Baltimore only and on scheduled sailings. We regret that cargo cannot be carried on Sunday sailings – except in emergencies. You can check out our sailing timetables here.
Cargo pricing is all listed below. All cargo charges listed are one-way only. Where an item is not listed, the charge will be determined by a similar item which is listed. If you have any queries on cargo charges, please contact us at info@capeclearferries.com
