An Irish Adventure – Marine filming specialists Cornwall

As marine filming specialists Cornwall, every year we try and have a marine adventure. And our friends at Motor Boat and Yachting magazine are always keen to take a series of magazine articles and videos from us.

Past adventures have included a voyage to Russia. 

And to Norway’s Arctic Circle.

But the 2022 adventure was a lot closer to home. though just as exciting. We set out across the Celtic Sea to explore the south west coast of Ireland.

And it is an incredibly beautiful place. Here are some shots from the trip.

An Irish Adventure

Not only is south west Ireland crammed with stunning scenery. It’s also full of larger than life characters. Like Sneem’s goat man!

Stunning scenery

I guess that everyone has a special place. For me it is Derrynane Harbour, County Kerry. I spent the summers of my youth here.

Spectacular wildlife

As well as whales seals and dolphins at sea, the birdlife is rich and varied. huge gannet colonies. And iconic puffins.

Fantastic cruising grounds

Unlike the marina infested south coast of England, it’s rare to see another pleasure boat. And usually you have the ocean to yourself.

Colourful villages

Castletownbere may be one of Ireland’s busiest fishing ports, but that doesn’t detract from its beauty.

So from our trip we produced a series of magazine articles and accompanying videos for the magazine. Search Motor Boat and Yachting You Tube an Irish Adventure. And share our trip!
