Enjoy the best, in dog-friendly
If you’re crossing with your pooch you don’t need to leave them in the car! With comfy dog-friendly cabins, plus an outdoor area to stretch their legs a little, they can enjoy a better journey too.
You can pre-book one of our dog-friendly cabins on select Connemara sailings - which can accommodate up to 2 dogs at a time! $65 for a 2-bed, from $85 for a 4-bed. Book online when you make your original booking or by calling 0800 844 844 - subject to availability. They’re often in high demand though… so we recommend booking early!
