About this event
Join us for a memorable adventure that starts with a scenic boat trip from Howth's West Pier with Howth cliff cruises to this stunning island. Led by Nicole, you'll embark on a foraging tour observing the island’s edible & medicinal treasures used by our ancestor's. This is followed by a delightful beach picnic featuring locally foraged and organically grown produce while exploring the folklore and magic that make Ireland’s Eye so special.
Experience nature's bounty and culinary delights in one unforgettable day! Lunch will be vegetarian please let us know if you have any dietary requirements. Dress for the weather, bring a bottle of water, sun cream & small backpack. We will provide photo files of the plants and pollinators after our trip.
