Island Discovery

The best way to really see the Fermanagh Lakelands is from the water, so hop in a boat and explore the many islands of Lough Erne. And if that boat is skippered by Barry Flanagan, you will see and hear so much more. There is no set itinerary and countless possibilities. Starting from Enniskillen, Ireland’s only island town, Barry chooses your route based on his knowledge of the Lough Erne’s changing currents, seasons and movements of wildlife. As you travel, he will show you secretive creatures such as kingfishers, and intrigue you with poignant stories of these islands, which for centuries were home to thriving communities. Located right by the castle museum in Enniskillen, Erne Water Taxi operates a chauffeur driven, guided tour on Lough Erne that is sure to be the highlight of your day.  Their brand new, fully electric passenger vessel will bring you around in cosy comfort and style - no need to bring your wetsuit! Get ready to take in the local sights and history with the assistance of your storytelling guides, covering ancient anecdotes of the Kings of Fermanagh to the legends of the landscape and its people, your guides will have you learning and laughing all the way. This experience is a great way to spend a couple of hours in Enniskillen and offers something different: from a fun way to rest your feet and grow your appreciation of the landscape to an exciting way to connect with your friends and family while enjoying food and drink sourced exclusively in the surrounding areas.
