Merlin finally on passage home to Ahakista after a 2.5year hiatus of Covid-19. Our first stop over is La Palma that has had it's own problems with a recently active volcano.

Long Ocean Passage from Tenerife to Ireland departing 29th March. Only one berth remains available.

Carbery Sailing - Upcoming events Book your sailing course, Wild Atlantic Way cruise, Ocean Passage or Canaires Sailing Adventure

As Merlin is still in Tenerife, anyone looking for time on the water please consider using Baltimore Angling. Kieran is a super guy and really knows the waters of West Cork. You'll have a fab time onboard with him.

Due to Covid restrictions my UK groups were not able to travel and had to cancel their fishing charters. Having 20 days cancelled in the month of July is a huge blow for a small business in these tough times, but it means that these prime dates are available . I have the following dates available for full charter for Shark, Skate or general reef fishing.
July
8,9,13,14,15, 19-23 and 25,26,27
To book call Kieran on 086 3014971

Please share and spread the word.
Thanks Kieran

Examining the rigging is one of the essential preparations
before an Ocean passage. Hopefully in the near future we can set out again to explore the Atlantic islands.

Ever wondered what it would be like looking down from the top of Merlin's mast. Well...

Something to shine a light during the Covid-19 lockdown. Hopefully some day Ken will get out on Merlin.

We’ve decided with RTÉ to make Ireland’s DEEP ATLANTIC available for free on the RTÉ Player, hopefully might ease lockdown a little for some folks.
