Fishing Trips
Sligo bay is a popular destination for anglers and from the MV Spirit you can fish 360 degrees, meaning that even with a full complement of passengers there is room for all to fish. Of course, there is the added attraction of arriving safely, quickly and in dry comfort at your fishing grounds!

Island Hopping
Sligo is one of the most beautiful counties in Ireland. A short 45min trip will bring you to the stunning islands of Oyster and Coney.Click on "Locations" for further information on the areas to explore.

Surfing Offshore Breaks
The MV Spirit can be used as a support boat for a surfing trip to some little-known reefs. Ireland is an amazing location for surfing, but many of the best breaks are far offshore-don't miss out on an opportunity to catch the ultimate wave!
